About Us
Finding Inspiration in Every Turn
This is where special children's stories are created, but not just ordinary stories. They are stories that help, heal and calm children. They are gentle stories with comforting characters designed to help children navigate new experiences, deal with life's changes and life's challenges with confidence.
Whether it is your child or a child you work with, who is getting a new family, or getting a new baby in the family, or is an adopted child; whether they are starting school, or going to a new school, struggling to make friends or they are the target of bullies.
Perhaps there are problems at home or school and the child feels sad, lonely or scared. Facing worries or learning to understand big feelings can be overwhelming for a child. At KBC Creations, I am here to help.
​
Parenting and teaching isn't straight forward. Life is not the way we expect. You are not alone. We will do it together.
Meet Mia and Boo, and discover how their special friendship helps children through change, anxiety and everyday challenges in a simple, loving and reassuring way.
​
Your child can have their very own Boo, just like Mia. Watch your child let go of their worries, accept they might feel sad and even smile as it all begins to melt away, with the comfort of their own Boo companion.
​
Explore my carefully worded, repetitive lessons of how to understand the feelings they are having inside, see the joy in your child's face as they see the beautifully illustrated small books perfect for a child's hands and enjoy listening to author and counsellor Karen Bell’s soothing narration, as Mia and Boo gently guide children through life’s ups and downs.
Created with love, warmth and understanding, Mia and Boo are here to remind every child that big feelings come and go, and that they never have to face them alone. Enjoy!
The Story of Mia and Boo
​​
This is where Mia and Boo were created, with one simple purpose: to help children face life's worries, changes and big feelings with love, understanding and reassurance.
​
Created by counsellor and author Karen Bell, the Mia and Boo stories were inspired by years of supporting children, young people and adults living with anxiety and trauma. Through gentle stories, comforting words and lovable characters, KBC Creations aims to help children understand that they are never alone and that all feelings come and go.
​
At the heart of our stories is Mia and her special friend, Boo. Boo may look like a little monster, but Boo isn't scary at all. Boo represents the worries and feelings we all experience inside. Together, Mia and Boo learn that storms don't last forever and that kindness, understanding and connection can help us through difficult times.
​
The creator's dream is to create beautiful books, comforting audio stories and cuddly companions that grow alongside children as they navigate new experiences and challenges.
​
We hope that every child who meets Mia and Boo feels safe, understood and reminded that they are loved exactly as they are.
Thank you for being part of our story.

Meet The Creator of Mia and Boo
My journey as a teacher and a counsellor, specialising in anxiety and trauma, mainly now with adults, has taught me about our human needs.
​
We are often grown-ups with a child inside that did not get our needs met.
​
Children have to navigate a very difficult world and you can not be with them all of the time.
​
Their programming gets jumbled up because they are too young to understand and don't have the cognitive development to work it out.
​
My stories are carefully designed with small, repetitive words that a child will understand and a way of processing how to deal with the most challenging of situations. I write each one of them with love. Best wishes, Karen.
