  • #81 End of Daylight Savings
    Oct 22 2024

    In less than 2 weeks, on Sunday, November 3rd, most of us will have our clocks going back an hour. While this may have been a welcomed day pre-kids, it's a different story when you do have little ones because they are on a clock that doesn't usually like to be messed with.

    But not to worry! My advice is sure to help you get through it.

    Check out the latest episode to learn about how you and your family can make it through this upcoming time change as rested as possible.

  • #78 Baby Wearing
    Oct 2 2024

    This episode is all about Baby Wearing!

    My guest is a baby wearing expert and we're diving into things like:

    - Acknowledgement of baby wearing as a practice culturally around the world.

    - The marketing in North America of what a baby carrier is (and maybe what it isn't) and the recent science and benefits of Baby Wearing.

    - How to wear baby safely? (Positions/types of carriers/forward facing vs facing in/ what carrier is best for when?).

    - What parents do if they find baby doesn't like the wrap / carrier
