About Us
It started quietly in spring 2020. Our living room became a makeshift studio, and our eldest recorded a bedtime breathing story to help himself fall asleep. It worked. His little sister wanted one next. Then his classmates, all housebound during COVID-19, started asking their teacher for the calming tracks.
Those homemade recordings were tidied up, re-recorded, and grew into the Calm Kids Club: a family-run studio in the Pacific Northwest making calm, practical tools that help children breathe more slowly, settle big feelings, and build everyday resilience.
Why You Can Trust Us
We are not a medical or mental-health organisation, and we don't pretend to be. We don't diagnose, we don't treat, and we don't give personalised advice. What we do is take calming methods that are already well understood, like slow breathing, grounding, and the everyday tools of social and emotional learning (SEL), and put them into plain language that a tired parent or a busy teacher can actually use.
Everything we make is built on recognised, widely taught practices rather than anything we've invented ourselves. We're not chasing novelty. We're trying to make good, established ideas easier to find and easier to use, at home or in a classroom.
We're careful about our limits. Our tools support calm and connection. They are not a substitute for help from a doctor, a therapist, or another professional. Where a topic touches clinical ground, we say so plainly and point you towards the right support, rather than guess.
And when we don't know something, we'd rather tell you than fill the gap with something that just sounds confident. That's the standard we hold ourselves to.
What We Make
Audio stories and guided breathing. Short, soothing practices for bedtime and for resetting after an overwhelming moment.
Printable calm-down tools. Screen-free worksheets, visual supports, and activity packs made for parents, homeschoolers, and teachers.
Articles and guides. Plain-language pieces on emotions, routines, anxiety, and behaviour, written for people with no spare time.
Teacher and classroom packs. Calm-down visuals, brain breaks, and SEL lessons that help a room feel quieter and more connected.
What We Believe
Calm shouldn't feel clinical or complicated. It should feel warm, playful, and woven into an ordinary day. We're here to help children learn how to settle themselves, think clearly, and say what they feel safely, so stress feels less like something that takes over.
