Program Description

The Online Children's Relaxation Coach Program prepares educators, child caregivers, therapists, and interested professionals to guide children toward emotional balance and inner calm. Participants learn how to recognize early signs of childhood stress, sensory overload, and restlessness, while acquiring the skills needed to introduce targeted relaxation methods tailored to different age groups. This qualification equips graduates to support children in schools, daycare centers, recreational facilities, or in private coaching practices.

The curriculum encompasses foundational concepts of developmental psychology and child neurobiology, exploring how stress affects children's physical and psychological well-being. Core modules focus on age-appropriate relaxation techniques, including child-adapted Autogenic Training, Progressive Muscle Relaxation according to Jacobson, guided fantasy journeys, and mindful breathing exercises. Students also study creative movement and sensory games, practical course planning, pedagogical intervention strategies, and effective communication techniques for working with parents and educators.

Delivered through a flexible distance-learning model, this program combines comprehensive study materials with digital learning resources accessible via the online campus. Participants can study at their own pace alongside professional or family obligations, supported by experienced academic tutors throughout the entire learning period. The course includes a one-day online practical seminar; participants who do not attend receive only a certificate of completion (Entspannung für Kinder) instead of the BTB certificate Coach für Kinderentspannung.
