Hello! I’m Carol - Holistic Therapist, Children's Wellbeing Coach and Yoga Teacher, and the heart behind Poppy Kids.

I’ve been working in natural health and wellbeing since 2007, running my therapy business Poppy Therapies and supporting both adults and children to feel their best, naturally. In 2018, after completing my Relax Kids training in magical Glastonbury, Poppy Kids was born - and I haven’t looked back since!

I qualified as a children’s Yoga teacher in 2020, and over the years I’ve had the joy of working with hundreds of children through weekly classes, after-school clubs, family workshops, holiday clubs, and one-to-one sessions. I’ve delivered sessions in schools, nurseries, libraries, and community spaces, working with children of all ages and abilities, including those with learning disabilities and looked-after children.

Poppy Kids brings together everything I love - creativity, connection, storytelling, movement and mindfulness - all in a gentle, nurturing way. I’ve made a career out of my passion, and I absolutely love what I do.

Lately, I’ve been bringing my woodland world of The Whispering Wood to life through a growing series of children’s yoga storybooks and a beautiful resource called the Poppy Kids Big Book of Calm - designed for parents, teachers, and children's club facilitators looking to support calm, confidence and emotional wellbeing in children. More details coming soon!

This website is still growing, so check back soon for new class dates, workshops, and a magical world of resources. And if you’d like to be the first to hear what’s new, pop your name on my mailing list - I’d love to keep in touch!
