Mummy Mentors

As parents in a very fast-paced world, it can be easy to become over-scheduled and for our kids to feel overstimulated. It seems like we’re so time poor that we can often feel like we have to cram every spare moment we have into making memories and activities and outings. In 2020 we have gotten a taste for slow-parenting, but how do we hold onto it? Em, Maz and Jess caught up with psychologist Leanne Hall to get her expert advice.  Keep up with the conversation over at Kidspot.com.au and join us on Facebook to discuss.  This podcast is brought to you by Children's Panadol, helping parents find more time for downtime.
