The Five Things All Children Need

I am SO MAD!

Or I was when I first listened to a guest discuss their parenting views on another top podcast. Her guidance - that children should not be in daycare and that women should stay at home for the first couple of years - I felt was too dogmatic, and I immediately jumped on the mic to record this episode.

That professional’s opinion comes from an informed place. However, I strongly disagree with them, and in this episode I want to share what I believe are the five core things you should be providing for your children, irrespective of family structure and circumstances.

Because if you can focus on providing these things, your children will flourish.

So find a comfy seat, pour yourself a cuppa and enjoy the conversation…

(now who wants to guess what podcast I was listening to?)
