“My son looks forward to going every Thursday and always comes home smiling and relaxed”
“My Daughter is very fond of her holistic teacher and has great fun at this club. Her confidence is blossoming more and more each week. What a great idea Holistic Kidz”
“Holistic Kidz NI is a wonderful programme which allows kids the opportunity to have much needed time out from their busy lives. My daughter loves going every week and this is the only class that she wants to continue to go to term after term”
“My child's inner confidence has improved so much from her last term. I know she looks from the outside like a confident kiddo but she’s been holding onto minor setbacks and negative interactions. I really think Holistic Kidz has played a part in her new found self-belief”
“My son is really enthusiastic about relaxation class and he is really waiting for this club every week. He really enjoys the massage and he is completely relaxed. I hope this club will continue in our school as it helps the kids to feel more confident”
“Amelie had a fantastic time at your December holiday Club. My Husband and I have full trust and confidence leaving her in your care. We will not find any camp that is as attentive or of the same high standard in our local area. Thank you Holistic Kidz, she looking forward to midterm club”
“Our experience with Colette has been extremely beneficial for our son. We are so surprised he is now able to relax and to engage with Mindfulness for 45 minutes. This means a lot to our child as he has suffered from anxiety and difficulties with attention span. He seems much calmer now. He finds going to sleep much easier at night and he seems to be able to relax much better through the day. All the work he does with Colette has been amazing and he is a much happier boy as a result, less fearful. Two sessions a week is great and we hope, little by little, he integrates his mindfulness skills to his daily life.”
“Holistic Kidz club is a great holiday camp for children! Our boys had the best of fun, made new friendships, enjoyed the activities and relaxation at the end of the day. They are looking forward to the next club! I have never seen them fall asleep as quickly in the evenings and lovely to see them running into your club with excitement and smiles every morning. Thank you”
“We have used these services many times & we absolutely recommend Colette & her team. While living in Belfast we knew no one to call on to look after our children, but finding Colette we knew our children were in a safe environment and trusted her 100%. Our son loved spending time with Colette so much and would often ask when he would be going back to Kidz Club again!! Amazing service & so reliable”
“Alexandra had a fantastic time with Holistic Kidz over mid-term camp. The activities on offer were a variety of education & fun day trips plus relaxing time before and after the day trip. A small group of children and really fun friendly Coach helped her settle in quickly, being the youngest in the group. She was so happy to go each day & talked about how much fun she had for a long time after! We are looking forward to the next camp & will be highly recommending to others. Thank you, Colette & team!”
