We have used Sarah for years to train our nursery practitioners in first aid. She ensures staff complete the course feeling confident in all areas of first aid. Sarah’s training is interactive and so valuable to anyone working with children.
Highly recommended

👀 Did you know eye colour isn’t as simple as looking at a chart? In fact, scientists believe 11 different genes play a role in determining the colour of your eyes! ✨

👀 While parents’ eye colours can give some clues, genetics love to surprise us — meaning your baby’s eye colour might be totally unexpected! 💙💚

❓Was our eye colour predictor right for your little one? Drop a comment and let us know!

🔖 TAG a mum or dad-to-be so they can join the fun and guess their baby’s eye colour.

SAVE this post if you’re expecting — and check back later to see if the chart got it right!

🌈 After the storm comes a rainbow — but the storm is never forgotten.

🌈 Today is Rainbow Baby Day, a day to honour the babies born after loss and the deep, complex journey that brings them here.

❤️ It’s also a day to hold space for every parent whose rainbow isn’t here yet, whose arms remain empty, or whose heart has chosen a different path.

For those holding their rainbows.�For those waiting.�For those carrying them now.�For those trying again.�For those facing infertility.�For those not ready.�For those who may never try again.

🫶🏻We see you and we stand with you.

🔹 Scarlet Fever is very infectious and can easily be spread to other people so if you think your child might have scarlet fever please keep them off school or nursery.

🔹 It's usually easily treated with antibiotics but as always, if you are concerned about your child, please trust your instincts and get advice from a medical professional as soon as possible if you feel your child is becoming more unwell.

🔹 If they are displaying the following symptoms please get medical advice as quickly as possible:

👉Fever
👉Severe muscle aches
👉Localised muscle tenderness
👉Redness at the site of a wound
👉Unexplained vomiting or diarrhoea

🔖 SAVE this post so you can refer back to it and TAG your parent friends so they know what to look out for.

🌼 If your toddler throws the toy across the room, pours their water on the floor, or up ends the bowl of food you’ve just spent hours preparing, it’s not because they’re “naughty” — it’s because their brain is still very much under construction.

🌼 The part of the brain that controls impulses — the prefrontal cortex — isn’t fully developed until the mid-20s!

🌼 For small children, it’s like having a car with a powerful engine (big feelings!) but very weak brakes (self-control).

🌼 So when they act before they think, it’s not defiance — it’s biology.

🌼 Our job isn’t to expect perfection, but to teach, guide, and be the “borrowed brakes” until theirs get stronger.

🌼 Next time you see an impulsive moment, try this: pause, breathe, and remember — they’re learning how to steer.

Sarah delivered all day pediatric first aid training at our setting. We were able to have a few giggles along the way which helped to offset the seriousness of what we were learning, Sarah is always so friendly and delivers the training in a very relaxed, enjoyable way.
