Both were instrumental in our LIVE online sessions during 2020 and continue to engage children across the UK.
Every meditation that is played in our live sessions is guided by Oscar or Annie.
Oscar started his meditation journey in 2020 age 8 and has been recording guided meditations each year. As his voice matures we have captured magical meditations at each stage!
Annie joined our meditation team age 6 (2022) and continues to progress with guiding meditations each year.
MiniMe Mindfulness® have a whole catalogue of guided meditations led by voices aged 6 to 12 - and therefore can match the meditations matching to the cohort of children that we are teaching - from Pre-School to High School.
Oscar has been guiding children since 2020 (age 8) in positive mindfulness and mindset routines.
Now a high school student, he has been back in the studio to record our highly impactful
"Mentoring 4 Kids by Kids" programme.
Being in front of the camera as a Mentor for Primary (KS2) and Secondary School (KS3) Students comes naturally to Oscar. He knows the importance of these subjects and understands them inside out - having lived and practiced Mindfulness and Mindset routines all of his life.
Passing on his knowledge in a 'scripted' programme developed and designed by experts.
Oscar brings a cool, relatable, fun and innovative vibe to teaching Positive Mindfulness and Mindset techniques and is set to impact millions of children across the UK and beyond.
“I was a primary school teacher for 17 years, and I believe it is magical working with children; their energy, curiosity and ability to live in the moment is inspiring.
Over the years I have noticed a decrease in children’s well-being. This began to ignite my passion to study more about children’s mental health and well-being, including becoming the lead in our school for social and emotional care. At the same time, I grew my own practice in self-care whilst I trained to become a qualified Yoga teacher.
MiniMe Mindfulness® aligns with all my core values of wishing to make a real difference in our community and having a positive impact on our children’s future and well-being.
As a mum of two boys, I know too well how the stresses of life impact them, so I whole-heartedly want to give our children the tools they deserve to live a life with more confidence, resilience, and happiness.”
