  Lucas (8)

  Lucas is Simonne’s curious, big-hearted idea-tester and the original “why?” asker.

  With a thoughtful mind and a natural desire to help others, he brings real child insight to every Slow Breaths resource. Lucas is often the one asking the important questions, noticing what feels tricky and helping shape ideas so they truly make sense from a child’s perspective.

  He plays a special role in making sure the strategies feel practical, comforting and easy to use in everyday life, not just something that sounds good on paper.

  Louise (7)

  Louise is the joyful, creative spark behind Slow Breaths, always ready with a drawing, a story idea or an important reminder to “make it fun.”

  With her warm nature and big imagination, she brings a sense of playfulness and creativity to everything she touches. Louise helps to ensure each resource feels inviting, engaging and safe for children to connect with.

  She has a special way of reminding her mum that big feelings can feel a little easier when you understand them.
