Hello! I’m Jolene, the heart behind Guided by Giggles. I’m a counselor, a mom, a wife, and a strong believer that play, stories, and creativity are among the most powerful tools we have to help kids grow emotionally and developmentally. I have two sweet twin girls, my littler firecracker toddler, and an awesome stepson who’s a pre-teen. We also have two dogs who add to the daily chaos in our house. Guided by Giggles was created to support kids and the grown-ups who love them; parents, caregivers, teachers, and counselors, with gentle, playful resources that make social-emotional learning feel natural, cozy, and approachable. Think stories, dramatic play, digital activities, printable activities, sensory tools, and moments that invite connection instead of pressure.
