Our Mission

For many families, watching children grow up alongside a family pet is a true joy. As their bond strengthens, children learn to care for and nurture their furry friends. However, along the way, they may encounter some challenging topics, like when a pet gets sick. These subjects can sometimes be difficult to explain to the little people in your life.

The Vetsure for Kids Pet Packs help families navigate these tough conversations, offering guidance on how to explain difficult subjects in a child-friendly way. The packs cover topics like common pet diseases, Christmas with pets and welcoming home a new pet. Pet ownership, like life, can bring moments of sadness too, and our pet packs also address sensitive topics like the loss of a pet.

Created by Amey

My name is Amey and I’m a Technical Claims Specialist here at Vetsure. As an animal lover, I started my career as a veterinary nurse. Now as a parent and pet owner of two energetic hounds, I know first-hand how tricky pet care can be—especially with little ones!

That’s why I created the Vetsure for Kids Pet Packs, designed to help grown-ups navigate the complexities of pet ownership alongside children. Every child is unique, so feel free to tailor the information to your child’s needs and pace.

As well as the Pet Packs, I have introduced our Social Stories for neurodiverse children. This is a subject close to my heart as both myself and my daughter have autism.

I hope these materials support you on your pet care journey, and I’d love to hear from you about your own experience with our Pet Packs! If you’d like to share your story, do send us an email!

Helpful Guides

Our Pet Packs aim to introduce new concepts to children in a friendly and easy to understand way. Some of these topics can be difficult for parents to navigate, so we hope these resources provide helpful guidance on your pet care journey.

Some of our most viewed packs include:

Neurodiversity Series

Our Social Stories are structured to suit children who may find sitting still challenging, those who need more support with less words and those who march to the beat of their own drum. We don’t want to stifle their sparkle; we want to follow where they take us and hopefully help along the way.

We were incredibly lucky to have the input of a friend of Vetsure and early years teacher with SEN experience, who kindly volunteered her time to help. With this, alongside Amey’s undeniable passion for helping children and adults with neurodiversity, we hope you find these Social Stories useful.

 

Our Social Stories Include…

The structure is based on the ‘Social Stories’ layout which is commonly used in school settings and other professional organisations, so your children may be familiar with this format.

  • Dyslexia friendly pastel background, reducing overstimulation and glare
  • Easy to read font as recommended by various charities
  • ‘Feelings Key’ to help your child identify their mood and potential worry points
  • Colouring page to keep little ones entertained
  • ‘Chatter cards’ for non-verbal children, helping them communicate their feelings
  • Well-done certificate to celebrate their kindness and give a sense of achievement

 

Colouring Sheets

Alongside our Pet Packs, we have produced several colouring sheets to help keep your little ones entertained.
