What is Emotion Coaching?

Emotion Coaching is based on the principle that nurturing and emotionally supportive relationships provide optimal contexts for the promotion of children's outcomes and resilience.

Emotion Coached children and young people:

Achieve more academically in school
Are more popular
Have fewer behavioural problems
Have fewer infectious illnesses
Are more emotionally stable
Are more resilient

(Gottman 1997)

How does Emotion Coaching work?

Emotion Coaching uses moments of heightened emotion and resulting behaviour to guide and teach the child and young person about more effective responses. Through empathetic engagement, the child's emotional state is verbally acknowledged and validated, promoting a sense of security and feeling 'felt'. This activates changes in the child's neurological system and allows the child to calm down, physiologically and psychologically.

What We Do...

Emotion Coaching UK has been set up to promote Emotion Coaching as a way of supporting and sustaining children and young people's emotional and behavioural wellbeing.

Emotion Coaching UK develops and provides training and consultancy and can provide introductory training for educational establishments and other groups where adults interact with children and young people e.g. teachers, health visitors, school nurses, youth workers.

🧠 What does adult 'control' over children's behaviour look like in Emotion Coaching?

In Emotion Coaching, adult control means:
💛 Being aware of your own emotional response in the moment
🧘‍♀️ Staying calm enough to take the child’s perspective and empathise
🗣️ Gently reminding or teaching expectations in a socially engaged way so that children feel safe and secure, not frightened or ashamed.

Adult 'control' in relation to children and young people’s behaviour in Emotion Coaching is mostly about adult self-control. This is deeply linked to their emotional awareness.

🌱 Children learn best from adults who are calm, connected, and emotionally available.

🛑👋 Sorting an issue out for a child isn’t always the answer!
When distressed it is difficult to 'think straight'. This is universal - it applies to adults as well as to our children.

To problem solve we need to engage the reflective/thinking part of our brain. But when distressed the reactive or emotional part of our brain has taken over. No matter how much we just 'know' what it is that will fix the situation for a child, if their thinking brain is not sufficiently engaged to receive this suggestion, our words will fall on deaf ears.

🩷🧠By adults noticing that something is going on for a child and take time to listen to what the child has to say, sometimes this is sufficient for the child's emotional brain to start to calm. Feeling 'seen' is what children need first.

🧠 Weekly Reflection Question:
What helps me stay calm when my child is having big feelings?

💭 Think about the last time your child had a meltdown, got angry, or burst into tears. What helped you stay grounded in that moment?

Was it:
🫁 Taking a few deep breaths?
🧍‍♀️ Giving yourself space for a second before responding?
💬 Reminding yourself that “all behaviour is communication”?
🤝 Having a co-parent or friend to talk to afterward?

🌱 When we can regulate our own emotions, we ensure that our children feel safe and secure. Adult self- regulation wraps a child in emotional safety and security. It helps our attempts at soothing and calming a child's nervous system.

✨ Remember: self-regulation is a skill we practice too — not just our children!

📣 Did You Know?
🧠 Our brains are constantly growing and changing — especially in early childhood!

Every time you Emotion Coach a child through a big feeling, you are helping them to build new brain pathways that support emotional regulation, problem-solving, and connection with others. This incredible ability to reshape the brain is called neuroplasticity.

💛 Even better? These pathways become stronger the more they are used — just like muscles!
This is why your consistent, co-regulated responses matter so much. You are not just helping in the moment — you are supporting long-term emotional resilience.

It is not unexpected for a child to return to some of the 'old' ways of responding to difficult situations. It is not your child being defiant or you failing. Your child will not build strong brain pathways immediately. This inconsistent response from your child is a sign that you need to be consisent with your co-regulation!

✨Emotion Coaching + Repetition = Long-Term Brain Change.

#DidYouKnow #Neuroplasticity #BrainDevelopment #EmotionCoaching #CoRegulation #EarlyYearsMatters #EmotionCoachingUK

✨ Want to support your child’s emotional regulation? You are the starting point!
Here are 4 powerful ways to lay the foundation:
1️⃣ Take responsibility for the relationship - connection before correction.
2️⃣ Avoid judging your child - stay curious instead of furious.
3️⃣ Skip the over-praise - focus on effort, not labels.
4️⃣ Don’t parent from anger - your calm is their calm, remember- co-regulation.

💛 Emotion coaching starts with being present, not perfect.

🧸👶 🧠 Big Emotions in Little Bodies 👶💥
“They hit me!” — Sound familiar?
You are not alone — hitting is common in early childhood, and it’s not a reflection on you or them. 💛

This article is a gentle reminder for all the carers helping children learn to feel safe, seen, and soothed- https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/parenting-translator/202406/should-i-be-worried-if-my-kid-is-the-child-who-hits

#EarlyYearsCare #BigFeelingsInLittlePeople #NurseryLife

Over the next month or so, we’ll be exploring how Emotion Coaching can support the development of emotional regulation in children. Key principles include:

🩷 The parent takes active responsibility for the relationship
🩷 The parent does not judge the child
🩷 The parent does not over-praise the child
🩷 The parent does not parent from anger

✨ REPAIR: Restoring Connection with Your Child
Despite our best intentions, there will be times when we react to our children’s behaviour rather than respond with care. Life is busy, and in moments of stress, we may respond in ways that are harsh, abrupt, or critical.

In those moments, the relationship may no longer feel safe or secure for the child. They may experience stress or shame, which can escalate their behaviour—further fuelling our frustration or anger.

It’s the adult’s responsibility to restore connection and repair the situation.

STEPS TO REPAIRING THE RELATIONSHIP 🧠💖
1. Be aware of your own emotions.
Notice signs of strong feelings: flushed cheeks, clenched fists, racing heart, or shallow breathing.

2. Take time to cool off, if needed.
Pause to calm your nervous system before addressing the situation.

3. Acknowledge what happened.
Once calm, gently reflect on the moment. Consider how your child might be feeling and invite them to share.
Resist the urge to explain or defend your actions. Just listen with empathy.

❓Why Repair Matters
Temporary breaks in relationships are not harmful in themselves unless they are frequent. When we repair, we model to children that mistakes don’t break connection.

Requiring a child to apologise before receiving forgiveness can cause shame, not growth. But when adults take responsibility, we model emotional safety and unconditional love.🩷🧠

🧡 The Power of Sharing Emotions with Children
When adults openly share their feelings, children learn empathy and naturally respond with care, attempting to co-regulate the adult.💬💙

✨ A beautiful moment:
Child said- “I miss my mummy.”
Adult responds- “I understand. I miss my mummy too.”
Child responds gently- “If you want, I can be a pretend mummy for you today. Do you need a hug?”

💡 When we explicitly model emotional language and honesty, children not only feel safe expressing their own feelings, but they also begin to show empathy for others and make attempts to help them co-regulate.

🌸🐣 Happy Easter from Emotion Coaching UK! 🐰💛

Easter is full of excitement—chocolate eggs, family fun, and maybe even a few big feelings! 🍫🎉

✨ How can we use Emotion Coaching during Easter?
- Validate their feelings – “I see you’re really excited about your Easter egg!”
- Set expectatiions – “We’re saving some chocolate for later so you don’t get a tummy ache.”
- Help with self-regulation – “It’s hard to wait! Let’s take some deep breaths while we wait for the Easter hunt to start.”

By acknowledging their emotions and guiding them through, we help children feel understood, safe, and secure. 💙

🐣 Wishing you all a joyful and emotionally connected Easter! Let us know—what’s been the biggest Easter excitement (or challenge!) in your home? 👇

🌟 The Positive Impacts of Emotion Coaching 🌟

When we practice Emotion Coaching, the benefits go far beyond managing emotions in the moment.

💬 Are you seeing these outcomes in your home, school or setting? Comment below!

#EmotionCoaching #ParentingWithEmpathy #BigFeelings #StrongerConnections

🧠 Weekly Reflection Question: How do my emotions affect the way I respond to my child’s feelings?
💭 Have you ever paused to notice how your emotions influence the way you respond to your child’s feelings?

For example, when your child is upset, do you:
❤️ Stay calm and offer comfort?
⚡ Feel frustrated/worried/scared and try to fix the problem quickly?
😓 Feel overwhelmed and withdraw?
😡 Feel annoyed/angry by their behaviour and try to change this with sanctions

✨ Being aware of our own emotions helps us respond to our children with empathy, rather than react. When we are calm, we can repair the situation with our child. Repair offers more great modelling for your child about how to fix things when things go wrong.

Tell us in the comments—how do you usually respond to your child's strong emotions? 👇

🌫️🚪 “Mummy, I saw smoke in my room!”

William (3) woke up scared, thinking he saw smoke in his bedroom. His mum’s first instinct was to say, “You didn’t, don’t worry.” But she paused—realising that would dismiss his real fear.

Instead, they sat together in the dim light and talked about how shadows can look like smoke. As they chatted, William shared his real worry—the smoke alarm. His dad had changed the batteries the night before, and he’d been thinking about fires.

By listening and acknowledging his feelings, his mum helped her son manage low level anxiety. Resulting him feeling, soothed, safe, secure and seen. 💙

✨ Emotion Coaching helps kids manage their worries. Next time your child is scared, try sitting with them and exploring their feelings together. 💬

🌟 The Key Elements of Emotion Coaching 🌟

At Emotion Coaching UK, we believe in empowering children to understand and manage their emotions with compassion and support. Here are the core elements that make up Emotion Coaching.

🌟 Emotion Coaching - YOU Are the Intervention! 🌟

Remember, YOU are the key to making a difference! 💖 You are what helps children navigate their emotions and build a strong foundation for their future.

🌟 Emotion Coaching in Action: Impact So Far 🌟

Since mid-November 2024, over 210 early years practitioners have been taking part in the Emotion Coaching Early Years Project, and the changes we’re seeing are incredible! 🙌 Education Endowment Foundation

What’s happening so far?

🎯 Children are already benefitting! One little boy, once considered defiant, was given time to explain that his shoes were too tight, that was why he didn't want to put them on! – all possible due to staff using the Emotion Coaching framework - thinknig about what might be going on for the child and listening to what they have to say. Staff are also thrillled that children are labelling their emotions for the first time! 🧠

💬 Staff are feeling more calm and accomplished, with one practitioner saying, "It’s nice for us as practitioners to be using Emotion Coaching, we feel more accomplished and nicer rather than worked up and frustrated."

🌱 The setting culture is shifting too. Staff are seeing things "calm down" and are excited to see their practices changing for the better.

We’re so proud of all the progress so far. Keep up the great work, and let’s continue creating emotionally supportive environments for the children we care for! 💙✨

Got a little one with a big temper? 😡 It’s more about sturggline with self-regulation than a desire to harm. You'll find that being dismissive, angry or punishing your child will most likely make things worse! As children grow and learn to manage their impulses, those outbursts will mellow. Here’s how you can use Emotion Coaching to help settle your little one:

-Recognize and empathize with their feelings, try using one of the lines above❤️
-Label and validate their emotions 🌈
-Set clear expectations for behavior 🚦
-Team up to problem-solve 🤝

#EmotionCoaching #ParentingTips #EmotionalIntelligence

Every time we engage with children, we are influencing their development and behavior. Let's break these phrases down:

🌟Every interaction is an intervention: Our interactions with children are not neutral. Whether we intend to or not, our responses to their emotions and behaviors shape how they perceive and regulate their own emotions. For example, when we validate a child's feelings or help them problem-solve a conflict, we are intervening in their emotional world and providing guidance.

🌟Every intervention has an impact: This emphasises that our actions and responses have consequences. When we choose to respond to a child's emotions with empathy and guidance (intervention), we are influencing their emotional development and behavior (impact). Positive interventions like Emotion Coaching can help children learn to manage their emotions effectively and develop healthier coping strategies.

As adults we play a significant role in children's emotional development through our everyday interactions. Don't underestimate the power of YOU! Emotion Coaching harnesses this understanding by using each interaction as an opportunity to positively impact a child's emotional well-being and growth. 💖🧠

Stressed-out children? 🧠💥 Emotion Coaching to the rescue! By teaching emotional awareness, validating their feelings, and guiding them to solutions, we're turning tantrums into triumphs! 💪✨ Strengthen bonds, reduce stress, and equip your child with life-long coping skills. 🌟

🛑Instead of instantly reacting to your child's behaviour, take a moment to understand the emotions driving it. By recognising the underlying feelings, we can empathise with the child, connect with them and help them to calm. Remember, what your child expresses is only the tip of the iceberg.🌳🤸 🌱💡
