On this Remembrance Day, we honour the heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice so that we, and our children, could grow up in peace.

History reminds us that we must learn, remember, and teach our little ones the values of empathy, understanding, and acceptance.

Peace isn’t promised; it’s protected every day by how we choose to live and love.
Remembrance is how we honour those who made it possible and learning from the past is how we ensure history never repeats itself.

🎃 Halloween is almost here!

👻We can’t wait to see all the little (and big!) ones dressed up in their spooky, sparkly, and scary costumes!

👻But while the costumes are super fun, remember, most are mass-produced and not always made with safety in mind. Here are a few tips to help keep your little ghouls and goblins safe this Halloween:

👻Keep costumes and kids well away from open flames. Use battery-operated candles instead of real ones for pumpkins or decorations.

👻Try to buy from reputable brands and look for the CE, UKCA or UKNI mark to make sure costumes meet safety standards.

🤍Add an extra layer underneath costumes for warmth and protection.

🚨Teach children to STOP, DROP and ROLL if their costume ever catches fire it can make all the difference.

🤍Most importantly - have fun and stay safe!

Are you going trick-or-treating this year? Tell us what your little one will be dressed as in the comments!

Parents, please read!

Before you head out for trick-or-treating, remember:

Hard-boiled sweets, lollipops, small round chocolates, and marshmallows are not safe for young children - they can be a choking hazard.

After collecting sweets and chocolate, make sure you check your child’s haul before they dig in!

Happy (and safe) trick-or-treating!

👉 Swipe for the full statement issued by the Chief Safety Officer at MHRA.

👇 Here is the current advice from the NHS on taking paracetamol when pregnant or breastfeeding.

🔹 Paracetamol is the first choice of painkiller if you're pregnant. It's commonly taken during pregnancy and does not harm your baby.

🔹 You can take normal doses of paracetamol if you're breastfeeding.

🔹 Paracetamol is a first-choice painkiller during breastfeeding. It passes into breast milk in very small amounts. The amount of paracetamol your baby gets is far less than what they would get from a dose of paracetamol given to them directly.

🔹 It has been used during breastfeeding for many years without any negative effects on children.

🔹 Always read the instructions that come with the medicine.

‼️Please always follow advice form the NHS and trained medical professionals and contact them if you have any concerns.

💙This is for all the parents for whom the start of the new school term hasn't been smiley doorstep photos and excited children.

❤️We are sending love to those children and parents of children who struggle to be in a school setting, who perhaps can't be in school as much as their peers and for those who don't attend school.

💙We know how incredibly tough the SEN parenting journey can be so if you have found the past few weeks tough we are sending you love.

❤️Here’s how to recognise and treat conjunctivitis.

 ❤️You don’t need to keep your baby or child or school or nursery if they have conjunctivitis but you’ll need to inform the staff.

✔️👍🏼We always recommend speaking to a pharmacist if you think your child has conjunctivitis💙

👶🏽Newborn baby smell ❤️💙

Hands up if you’ve ever smelled your newborn baby’s head?!

Did you know that a baby’s head has a specific smell that actually has a positive effect on the brain's reward system. Research has shown can make people feel happy and harmonious and we can totally see why!🥰

According to sciencenordic.com, Biologist Johan Lundström, a researcher who specialises in smell, thought it was so wonderful to smell his daughter's head when she was born that he decided to investigate exactly how a baby's body odour affects people, according to an article published on an online Swedish popular science research magazine called forskning.se.

Lundström and his colleagues conducted experiments with 30 women who were asked to smell the inside of hats that had been worn by newborns. At the same time, the researchers studied their brains with a magnetic camera.

The women were also given other smells. When the researchers compared the different images of the women’s brains, it appeared that the baby smell had a similar effect on the brain as drugs used to treat mental illness.

The researchers now hope that a nasal spray with this distinctive baby smell could be developed as new, safe treatment for mental illnesses such as depression.

How amazing is that?!
