This summer? Iโ€™ll be honestโ€”I didnโ€™t love it.

Between sibling squabbles, cushions all over the floor, tray-surfing down the stairs (yes, really ๐Ÿ™ˆ), and zero routineโ€ฆ Iโ€™ve felt overwhelmed, overstimulated, and more than ready for school to start again.

Not loving the holidays doesnโ€™t make us bad parentsโ€”it makes us human parents. ๐Ÿ’›

Iโ€™ve shared my honest reflection (with a few funny moments tucked in too) in my latest blog. If youโ€™ve felt the same this summer, I hope it helps you feel less alone.

Most labours start at night โ€” seriously.
Oxytocin (your โ€œfeel-goodโ€ hormone) loves calm, quiet, and low lightingโ€ฆ so no surprise that it gets going when youโ€™re all snuggled up in bed.

In Chapter One: The Birth Journey, we talk about how to work with your body โ€” not against it.

Our course is warm, practical, non-judgy and even a bit fun ๐ŸŽฒ

๐Ÿ“† Due this autumn?

We are offering a very limited number of spaces for a walk around and chat on our postnatal ward. It's an opportunity to speak to one of our midwives about the practicalities of staying on the ward and what you can expect.

You can book your space here - http://bit.ly/4fmgj5C

We are hoping to do more postnatal ward tours in the future.

Some days parenthood feels like a blur of:

๐Ÿž making snacks
๐Ÿงบ tidying mess that reappears instantly
๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ trying to hold it all together

And on those days, itโ€™s easy to think youโ€™re โ€œnot doing enough.โ€

But hereโ€™s the truth ๐Ÿ‘‡
Children donโ€™t need perfect parents.
They need present ones.

Every time you:

๐Ÿ’› Sit on the floor for 5 minutes of play

๐Ÿ’› Listen to their story (even when it makes no sense)

๐Ÿ’› Offer a cuddle after a meltdown

โ€ฆyouโ€™re building their brain, their sense of safety, and their confidence in the world.

โœจ Thatโ€™s the science of child development, wrapped up in everyday moments.

And it means: youโ€™re doing better than you think.
