In this episode, I shift the focus to parenting toddlers as a single mum, a stage that can feel incredibly demanding and overwhelming. Alongside the tantrums, big emotions, and constant needs, you're also carrying the full load of daily life, often while feeling exhausted and stretched thin.

I introduce the Circle of Security approach, which centres on one powerful idea: your child needs you as both a secure base to explore the world and a safe haven to return to when things feel too much. We explore how this simple framework can help you better understand your toddler's needs, create emotional safety, and feel more grounded in your parenting even when things feel chaotic.
