Introducing DAISY’s Little Sprouts: Growing Emotional Wellness Early

Creative Mental Wellness is excited to officially launch DAISY’s Little Sprouts, our newest community-based mental wellness initiative designed for young children and their caregivers.

DAISY’s Little Sprouts is a guided, in-person book club experience that uses carefully selected children’s literature to nurture emotional literacy, empathy, resilience, and connection. Through storytelling, simple discussion prompts, and playful engagement, children are introduced to age-appropriate concepts related to feelings, coping skills, kindness, and community.

As a nurse-founded organization grounded in prevention and PROSILIENCE, we believe mental wellness education should begin early — long before a crisis emerges. By creating safe, welcoming spaces in community settings, DAISY’s Little Sprouts helps families strengthen emotional vocabulary, normalize conversations about feelings, and build protective factors that support lifelong well-being.

This program represents another step forward in our mission to fill gaps in community mental wellness infrastructure — one story, one family, and one small “sprout” at a time.

We look forward to watching these Little Sprouts grow.
