Standing Strong – Children's Wellness Clubs

WELCOME WE ARE STANDING STRONG!

As parents, we spend our whole lives doing everything we can to raise our children to be happy, confident and strong. We protect them, nurture them, encourage them and support them. We help them to believe in themselves and be proud of who they are. We love them more than anything and do everything we can to give them the best start to life.

Then just when we think we can take a breath, we notice something is different. We notice they’re not smiling as much as they use to. We see their confidence has started to fall. We notice them withdrawing from things they love and having troubles with friends and school. We hear them become negative about themeless and judgemental of others. And for some of us, we notice as they go quiet. Very quiet.

FAMILIES A COMMUNITY OF SUPPORT

At Standing Strong we are the support system for both children and parents. We are the place to turn to when you don’t know where to go. Since 2013, we have been supporting and empowering thousands of children, teenager, parents, schools and communities through both online and face to face programs. We are the shoulder for you to lean on and the community of support you and your family are looking for.

At Standing Strong we take a non-clinical and holistic approach to health and wellbeing. Through our evidence based programs, children not only learn how to improve confidence, self esteem and resilience, they also feel uplifted and empowered by a culture of kindness and support.
