Strong Minds, Strong Hearts—Starting with the Adults Who Guide Our Kids

At Mindful Kids Miami (MKM), we believe every child deserves the opportunity to develop focused attention, self-compassion, and self-regulation.

We train the adults who surround and care for children—educators, caregivers, mental health professionals, and community organization staff. Through our programs, adults strengthen their own presence and compassion while also learning to share age-appropriate, trauma-sensitive mindfulness activities. This dual impact empowers adults to embody mindfulness in their own lives and guide children in developing tools for success and resilience in school and in life.

Our Impact

Adult Programs: From the gold-standard Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) to our in-house Mindful Teacher Training Program (MTTP), we strengthen the skills of adults who shape children’s lives.
Ripple Effect: Each trained adult reaches hundreds of children, multiplying benefits across schools, families, and communities.
Proven Results: With over a decade of dedication, MKM pioneered the Mindfulness Champions Project with Miami-Dade County Public Schools, the Miami Heat, and Blue Cross Blue Shield—making history as the first district in the U.S. to appoint mindfulness advocates in every school.

When you give, you grow this movement. Your support strengthens both the adults and the children they guide—creating more compassionate and resilient schools, families, and communities.

Mission

We seek to bring the benefits of mindfulness to children from pre-K through the 12th grade in Miami-Dade County and throughout Florida. Mindful Kids Miami helps educators, health providers and caregivers teach mindfulness skills to children and youth in schools and other settings.

Our Vision

To improve the lives of all children in the community by giving them access to mindfulness skills which reduce stress and anxiety, develop attention and focus, promote emotional regulation and impulse control, teach empathy and compassion, and create a sense of well-being.
