KindMinds Wellbeing and Behaviour Support Services
School Wellbeing Services
Our
Mission
​
Schools today face growing challenges, from increasing disengagement to complex behavioural and mental health needs that are affecting students’ ability to learn and thrive.
We’re here to help change that.
​
KindMinds was founded from firsthand experience recognizing the diverse and complex wellbeing needs present in schools.
We understand the critical importance of embedding skilled, evidence-informed support directly into school communities to help students navigate life’s challenges in order to thrive academically.
Our mission is to close the gap between the rising demand for high-quality wellbeing services and the limited access to knowledgeable, affordable, available, and flexible practitioners.
​
We collaborate closely with educators and work with students in whatever capacity the school needs.

Partnering with Schools to Strengthen Student Wellbeing
At KindMinds, we believe wellbeing is the foundation of learning.
Research in educational psychology shows that when students feel safe, supported, and emotionally regulated, they’re more engaged and perform better, academically and personally.
​
That’s where wellbeing practitioners come in.
Wellbeing practitioners promote engagement, reduce behavioural issues, and support academic success through practical evidence-based care. They help students manage challenges, build resilience, and thrive through one-on-one sessions, group programs, behaviour planning, and staff consultation, tailored to each school’s needs.
By intervening early, they strengthen students’ coping skills which builds capacity to learn.
​​​​
Our vision is to make student wellbeing accessible, affordable, comprehensive, and holistic.
We do this by partnering with schools to embed skilled wellbeing practitioners directly into their communities.

​
With ongoing challenges like staff shortages, funding limits, and growing wellbeing needs, hiring staff internally can be costly. Our flexible, affordable services offer a skilled alternative, supporting your existing wellbeing initiatives without the financial or administrative burden.
​
Together, we help schools build caring communities where wellbeing and learning go hand in hand, empowering every student to grow into their best self.
How it Works
1
Wellbeing Consultation
The process begins when a school reaches out to us to arrange a complimentary consultation, either on-site or via video call. During this session, we explore your school’s unique wellbeing needs, listen to your priorities, and discuss the most suitable ways support could be delivered. This structured, collaborative conversation lays the foundation for a tailored wellbeing plan that aligns with your school community and its wellbeing goals.
2
In-School Wellbeing Support
Following the consultation, a wellbeing officer works directly within the school to provide support tailored to the needs identified. This may include individual one-on-one sessions, social group activities, behaviour support and planning, staff wellbeing initiatives, or whole-school programs— whatever best supports the school community. The approach is flexible, responsive, and designed to integrate seamlessly into the school environment, ensuring meaningful and lasting impact.

Review and Next Steps
Each fortnight we work closely with the school to review outcomes and reflect on what has been most effective. Based on these insights, we adjust the approach to meet any ongoing needs and provide a brief summary report outlining activities, outcomes, and recommendations. This collaborative process celebrates successes, reinforces positive outcomes, and ensures wellbeing initiatives continue to align with the school’s goals while determining the most effective next steps for ongoing or follow-up support.

Student Support Services
We offer personalised, trauma-informed support to help students build emotional regulation, resilience, and social connection.

Behaviour Support and Planning
We provide practical, positive behaviour support services to help students feel safe, understood, and emotionally regulated.
Our support includes in-class observations, collaborative behaviour planning, and targeted programs tailored to individual student needs.
Our approach is grounded in understanding the why behind behaviours. By addressing root causes and building proactive, strengths-based strategies, we support positive engagement across all areas of school life.
Staff Collaboration & Development
We support educators and school teams through reflective consultation, practical training, and wellbeing-focused planning. Our aim is to build confidence in trauma-informed and neuroaffirming approaches while strengthening team capacity.
