Meet Mello
for kids and their grown-ups.

Mello is a soft-spoken little cat in a lavender hoodie who shows up exactly when the wobble starts — for both of you. For kids, he's a playful guide through big feelings: belly breaths that feel like games, bedtime stories that actually wind down, brave little wins to celebrate.

For parents, he's a quiet co-pilot in your pocket: a 60-second reset before the school run, a gentle script for the third meltdown of the day, a reminder that you're doing better than you think.

Made for ages 3–11 & the parents who love them Therapist-approved

Breathing rainbow

A magic trick
for the panic.

When a tantrum is brewing or homework anxiety is climbing, follow the rainbow with your finger. Five colors. Five breaths. The body softens — every time.

  • Voiceovers from real, soft-spoken humans

Gratitude jar

A little jar
for the lovely bits.

Drop a tiny thank-you in every day — a kind word, a sticky-fingered hug, the way the light hit the kitchen floor. On Sunday, the jar pours itself out and reads your week back to you.

  • One sentence a day, kids and grown-ups
  • Sunday “jar opening” — a soft weekly highlight reel
  • Saved forever — a quiet family memory book

  • One-tap “We did it!” — and a little confetti
