Meet Your Self-Love Mentor,
Jennifer Gillingham 


Supporting you with Knowledge and Heart

With over 10 years of experience in elementary education, specialized training in nervous system regulation, a deep study of psychology, and certifications in mindfulness and yoga teaching, I offer  a compassionate, well-rounded, informed approach to help your child build a foundation of self-love and emotional well-being.

Why Choose 'Creating Love Within'?
I've supported and guided many children through feelings of self-doubt, emotional overwhelm, and negative self-talk. I’ve walked this path myself—and that’s exactly why I designed the Creating Love Within course for children. This course offers gentle, personalized guidance rooted in love, care, and lived experience, helping children build a strong foundation of self-love and emotional well-being.
 

In this course, children will:

  • Discover their innate worth and value

  • Practice gratitude and self-appreciation

  • Learn to accept and safely express their emotions

  • Build practical tools for self-regulation during challenging moments

  • Strengthen their confidence and inner voice
     

Creating Love Within isn’t just a program—it’s a safe, supportive space for your child to learn, grow, and connect with their inner strength.

Self Advoacy

When practicing self-love becomes a habit,  you  understand that you are worthy of setting healthy boundaries with others.

Without cultivating healthy self-love habits, our emotional stability can be compromised. Our well-being becomes fleeting when we rely on external sources for validation and fulfillment. When we practice self-love we begin to recognize and embrace our intrinsic value.

Self-love is an empowering force that fosters resilience in the face of life’s challenges. It nurtures self-respect and a strong sense of our innate self-worth, while encouraging kindness toward others.

When we love ourselves, there’s no need to diminish anyone else to feel empowered. Instead, self-love paves the way for a brighter, kinder, more fulfilling future. It is a key element of social-emotional learning and essential for overall well-being.

Each day offers a new opportunity to begin again, leave behind old patterns and step into your full and beautiful potential.

I’m excited to help you on your self-love journey! Remember, self-love is a practice that can grow stronger every day.
