Have you heard of the Playdayz App? This week Stef talks to the creator of this genius idea, Mia Shepherd.

When Mia became a Mum she realised how isolating it can be and also how expensive childcare was so she set about solving those issues with the Playdayz App. Meet up with parents, host play dates or even share childcare - all from the safety of the app. You have to submit verified ID to join and all communication can take place in the app until you feel confident to share contact information - all for under €2 a month.

You can find out more about the app by downloading from the app store or take a look on Insta @playdayz_playdates

Talking to Stef this week is Aisleen Harte - the author of My Voice, My Choice. Aisleen is an early years educator and a mum, who wrote this thought provoking book about allowing children to use their voice and make their own choices. It sounds so simple but as the conversation progresses, Stef and Aisleen start to unravel all the conditioning we are taught along the way. Especially those of us that spent years being 'good girls'.

You can buy Aisleen's book here: https://www.buythebook.ie/product/my-voice-my-choice/ and you can follow Aisleen on Instagram @a_r_words

Hayley told Stef that if we look at our teenagers with a developmental lens, it can help change our mindset when dealing with their risk-taking brains! They discussed how certain things can have natural consequences, where perhaps parents don't need to add a 'punishment' and how connection is vital at this stage of development.

Hayley also touched on bedtimes and how challenging they can be.
