Welcome to Smart Kids and Teens! Support for Parents, So Every Child Can Thrive

As a parent, you want the best for your child. To see them happy, confident, and thriving. But with rising screen time, stress, nutrition challenges and the pressures of modern life, it’s harder than ever to know how to support your child’s mental and emotional wellbeing. 

In the last decade, we’ve witnessed an alarming rise in mental health issues among young people. This includes increased levels of anxiety, sadness, low self-esteem, and feelings of hopelessness. An unprecedented increase in the identification of young people who have an Autism and/or ADHD diagnosis is also causing concern. As highlighted by The Good Childhood Report 2023, mental health struggles in children have risen by 50% in the last three years. That’s why early support matters and you’re already taking the right steps.

That’s why we created SMART KIDS. A parent-powered programme that helps you understand and support your child’s brain health, focus, mood, and potential using nutrition and science-backed tools.

We know that behind every bright child is a caring adult, often doing the hard work behind the scenes. Smart Kids is here to walk with you, not to overwhelm you, offering small, realistic steps to make a big difference.

Get Insight Into Your Child’s Wellbeing

Start by taking the Smart Kids Test: a free, simple way to check in on your child’s cognitive, emotional and behavioural wellbeing. You’ll gain helpful insights and easy-to-follow tips to support them at home.

Then, by joining us within the COGNITION for Smart Kids and Teens™ Community you’ll also get access to:

  • Our growing library of tools and guides, from “Top Tips for Reducing Sugar” to “Smart Snacks for Smarter Kids.”
  • Expert webinars, giving you the confidence to support your child.
  • Inspiring stories from other parents, so you know you’re not alone.

This is why we have created the COGNITION for Smart Kids & Teens Programme.

For seeking personalised results DRIfT 5-in-1 is a simple at-home blood test that gives you insight into your child’s five key brain health markers:

  • Vitamin D
  • Omega-3 levels
  • Homocysteine (B vitamin status)
  • Blood sugar control (HbA1c)
  • Glutathione (the body’s master antioxidant)

These markers are not only vital for optimising brain health in children (and adults); they’re also closely linked to mood, memory, energy, and mental wellbeing at every age. DRIfT is safe to use from age two and up, making it ideal for families wanting to support their child’s cognitive development. Knowing your child’s numbers gives you the power to take targeted, evidence-based action.

As Dr Rona Tutt, OBE, Past President of the National Association of Head Teachers, an expert in special needs and on the Board of Trustee’s says:

People come in assorted shapes and sizes with brains that are unique.  A significant minority who are neurodivergent, need to be recognised, valued and supported, so they can maximise their strengths and overcome any challenges. We need to understand how to best support and optimise every child’s potential.”

You know your child best. We’re here to back you up with tools, knowledge, and encouragement.
