Heartwhisper
Gentle stories for big feelings
Sometimes a child is carrying something they don't quite have the words for.
A worry about school. A friendship that feels difficult. A change they weren't expecting. A feeling that seems too big to explain.
Heartwhisper creates gentle, personalised stories that help children feel seen, understood and accompanied through the things that feel difficult.
Created by child therapist Natilie Cocker and thoughtfully supported by AI, Heartwhisper is designed for children aged approximately 4–10 and the trusted adults who care for them.

When can Heartwhisper help?
Heartwhisper can create stories around many of the experiences children encounter as they grow, including:
• Bedtime worries
• School anxiety
• Big emotions
• Grief and loss
• Friendship difficulties
• Separation anxiety
• Sensory overwhelm
• Change and transitions
• Feeling left out
• Building emotional confidence
You don't need to know exactly what to say.
Simply tell Heartwhisper a little about your child and what's happening for them.
How Does It Work?
1. Tell Heartwhisper what's happening
Share a little about your child, what they're experiencing and anything that might help the story feel familiar to them.
2. Heartwhisper creates their story
Heartwhisper gently shapes what you've shared into a personalised story designed around your child's experience.
3. Read it together
Share the story when the moment feels right.
There is no expectation for your child to talk about it afterwards, explain what they're feeling or learn a particular lesson.
Sometimes the story itself is enough.
Why stories?
Children don't always communicate their inner world through direct conversation.
Sometimes asking “How do you feel?” or “What's wrong?” is simply too big a question.
Stories offer another way in.
They can allow children to encounter an experience at a little emotional distance, through a character and a world that feels safe enough to explore.
A story doesn't have to make the difficult feeling disappear.
Sometimes children simply need to discover:
Someone understands.
I'm not the only one who feels like this.
I don't have to solve this right now.
