About Little Feelings Club

Hi there, I'm Cathy!  

I am an Educational Psychologist and the creator of Little Feelings Club. I hold a Doctorate in Educational and Child Psychology from the University of Sheffield, graduating in 2014. I specialise in child development, emotional literacy, and playful, relationship‑centred approaches that help little ones feel understood, confident, and connected. 

Little Feelings Club brings together my passion for early childhood and my belief that every family deserves simple, practical tools to help children understand their feelings.

Why I developed Little Feelings Club

During my first maternity leave, I noticed that there were plenty of classes for parents/carers and their children, but very few that focused on one of the most important areas of concern for families: helping children make sense of their emotions and begin to regulate with the support of an adult.

I designed Little Feelings Club to be enjoyable for both children and adults, but also to be a supportive community space for the grown‑ups helping children with their big feelings. There is so much evidence showing that longer‑term mental health is shaped by early emotional literacy and wellbeing - and if we can improve the long‑term happiness of even one little person, then creating Little Feelings Club has been a success in my eyes.

Hopes for the future

Little Feelings Club is growing all the time - new venues, new groups, and more educational social media content are always on the way. I would love to see Little Feelings Club become available to as many children and families as possible because I genuinely believe we might just have something special.

If you’d love to see Little Feelings Club in your area, or you’re interested in collaborating, please get in touch. We’d be delighted to hear from you.

Above all, my hope is that Little Feelings Club becomes a gentle, reliable space where big feelings feel a little less overwhelming - for children and for the adults who love them.
