Hello, I’m Amy

Emotional Well-being Practitioner, Family Support Worker & Life Coach.

Founder & Owner. 

I am delighted to welcome you to Mindful Support Ltd, a dedicated hub for emotional well-being. 

As a mother of five with 25 years of experience across education, healthcare, and childcare, I have seen first-hand the transformative power of early intervention. When we provide timely, compassionate, and practical guidance, both children and adults are better equipped to thrive—not just for now but long-term. 

At Mindful Support Ltd, the approach is inclusive of SEN support, which extends to clients of all ages because well-being is lifelong. Every person’s journey is unique; this is why our approach is personal, compassionate, and tailored. 

Because emotional support must be managed correctly, I am proud of my team’s qualifications and desire to keep knowledge up-to-date to build on our skills, ensuring we offer the best possible care.
