What We Offer

Successful Healthy Children is an umbrella of support for children, adolescents, families, educational professionals and schools. We are a team of women from multiple states, collaborating with an interdisciplinary perspective to meet your needs, in a variety of ways. From our resources and blog posts, to working directly with students and families, to providing professional development and community/parent workshops, and always, advocating for children, Successful Healthy Children can help you and/or your school.

We believe in order to have successful, healthy children, we need to work–and play–together. Children and adults need recess and rest, to be their best selves. We enjoy collaborating with each other, and through our collective efforts, our team shares the opportunity with you as we identify and implement solutions to meet your needs.
