When a toddler refuses to brush their teeth or get in the car, logic and reasoning are often useless. So, what do you do?

The answer is simple: use your imagination. By stepping into their world of make-believe, you can turn a tedious chore into a fun adventure. Learn how to transform power struggles into play, using storytelling and creativity to get things done without a fight.

Every year, some of our lovely patients surprise us with Christmas gifts — and while we’re always touched by the thought, this year we’re hoping to pass that kindness forward.

Instead of gifts for us, we’d love you to help us support Hampshire Hospitals Charity by choosing a tag from our Giving Tree and donating an item they really need. ❤️

These small acts make a big difference to patients and families spending Christmas in hospital.

Thank you, as always, for being such a generous and supportive community. You make Andover shine a little brighter ✨💙

Your words are the building blocks of your relationship with your child. But many common phrases, like "calm down" or "because I said so," can backfire and create resistance.

Learn why these expressions shut down communication and what to say instead. By reframing commands as invitations and replacing criticism with curiosity, you can build a deep well of trust.

Discover how a few simple language tweaks can help you connect with your child and get them to willingly co-operate.

🍂 How cute are these?! 🍂
Our reception desk has had a very cosy autumn upgrade thanks to one of our wonderfully talented friend who knitted every single pumpkin, mouse and hedgehog in this little display. They’ve been getting so many compliments (and yes… plenty of “can I take one home?” requests!), so we wanted to give her business a well-deserved shout-out.

🧶 Handmade by Knitastic
If you love beautifully knitted seasonal decorations, her page is absolutely worth a look — she makes the loveliest gifts and decorations, all crafted with an incredible attention to detail.

And yes… we’ll be keeping these out as long as possible because they make us smile every day 🧡💚🤎

Tired of hearing "no" to every request? A toddler's resistance is a sign of their healthy desire for independence, not defiance.

Instead of engaging in a power struggle, try offering choices. This simple tool allows you to give your child a sense of autonomy while still guiding the outcome.

Learn how to transform standoffs into moments of co-operation by offering two acceptable options—turning everyday tasks from a battle into a collaborative game.

Is your child's tantrum a sign of defiance or a cry for help? It's often the latter. A child in the grip of a big emotion isn't being manipulative; their brain is simply overwhelmed.

Telling them to "calm down" is an impossible request. Instead, learn the power of emotional validation. By simply naming and acknowledging their feelings, you help them calm their nervous system and teach them how to self-regulate.

Discover how putting feelings first can defuse tantrums and build a foundation of emotional intelligence that lasts a lifetime.
