Yoga programs for kids in childcare

Childcare wellbeing programs

Calm classrooms. Confident children. Supported educators.

What if big emotions didn’t derail your day… but became moments of learning, connection, and calm?

Give your children an inner compass to navigate their feelings, and your educators a simple, practical system that works in real moments.

Less chaos. More flow.

🌿Emotional regulation
🧭Simple COMPAS tools
Calmer transitions
💛Educator support

Small tools. Big change.

Play-based yoga, breath, movement, and mindfulness for children aged 2 to 6.

The daily reality

When big emotions take over the room…

“We don’t need more activities. We need tools that actually work in real moments.”

Big feelings rise quickly

One child becomes overwhelmed, and suddenly the whole room feels it.

Transitions feel harder

Moving from outdoor play to inside calm can take more energy than expected.

Educators are stretched

Your team doesn’t need more to do. They need something that makes everything else easier.

The COMPAS Framework™

A simple, practical way to bring children back to calm

This is not just yoga. This is emotional regulation made simple… and usable in real moments.

COMPAS is a gentle, structured system that fits into your day, not on top of it.

In just minutes, children learn how to:

  • pause
  • breathe
  • move their energy
  • return to calm and focus

No complicated setup. No extra pressure on staff.

Just simple, repeatable tools that work when they’re actually needed.

This is where the shift begins… from reacting to guiding.

About Marketa

Hi, I’m Marketa

I believe the greatest gift we can give children is not to remove every challenge… but to gently guide them in learning how to move through those moments with calm and confidence.

As a child, I often carried feelings quietly. Today, I create spaces where children feel safe to express, explore, and grow.

I blend playful learning, movement, and simple emotional tools into experiences that feel natural, engaging, and meaningful.

Professional validation

“Marketa has a remarkable gift for blending movement, mindfulness, and fun in a way that supports both emotional regulation and developmental growth. Her sessions are inclusive, creative, and therapeutic by nature, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to other centres and schools I work with.”

“What stood out to me most was her intuitive use of strategies that align beautifully with developmental and therapeutic principles her transitions between heightened and calm arousal states were seamless, creating a safe and nurturing rhythm for the children to follow. I was particularly impressed with how she incorporated imitation into the session, which is such a core learning domain in ESDM. She's a true gem in the early childhood space!”
