myHappymind provides mental wellbeing programmes for primary schools, early years settings and families, aimed at giving children preventative strategies, skills and tools for resilience and self-esteem. The offering combines research, science and technology into a developed framework and curriculum that schools and nurseries can adopt, alongside a version for parents at home.

Delivery in schools includes a whole-school approach with weekly lessons and assemblies, character-based content, pupil workbooks and materials for teachers, plus a Parent App that extends the programme to families. Separate programme tracks are marketed for primary schools, early years settings and families.

The founder, Laura Earnshaw, has authored the book "My Happy Mind: Help your child build life-long confidence and resilience," which sets out the science used in the curriculum for parents, and collaborated on a children's book, "You Can Do Anything!"
