Why I created The Calming Kit
I created The Calming Kit after living through the exhaustion of parenting a child with big, intense emotions. When my eldest son was very young, our days felt unpredictable and challenging. What I didnāt understand then was that he wasnāt being difficult, he just had huge emotions that he didn't understand, and I didn't know what to do with them. The Calming Kit was born from learning how to support regulation in real, practical ways, and from wanting other parents to have something tangible to reach for when words arenāt enough.
What Does Science say about regulation?
80%
of emotional regulation capacity is linked to caregiver responsiveness
2 x
more likely to show meaningful improvements in emotional regulation with sensory support
3 x
greater emotion regulation observed in securely attached children
2 x
more likely to return to calm more quickly after emotional escalation with sensory support
The Rhythm of Regulation
In The Moment
The moment your child sees the kit, familiarity and curiosity create a pause. This interrupt alone can stop escalation and make the moment easier to manage right away.
Over Days & Weeks
As your child regularly engages with the sensory tools, their nervous system begins to associate & recognise safety. What once took a long time to settle often shortens, and regulation starts to come more easily.
Over Months
Through repeated sensory play and connection, regulation becomes a learned pattern. Youāre offering tools instead of lectures, creating a predictable rhythm where your child increasingly regulates with less support.
