Made by Mammas: The Podcast

On today's episode, Georgia has the help of The Modern Midwife to answer your questions, that everyone wants to ask and almost nobody says out loud: will I poo myself during labour? She explains what really happens in the birthing room, why midwives have seen it all before, and how to feel more prepared and less anxious about the big day. Whether you’re expecting your first or you just want to know what nobody told you last time, this one’s for you. Got a question for a future Q&A? Send it our way. We’d love to hear from you.

Zoe and Georgia are back for a catch-up, and it goes somewhere neither of them expected! Georgia is deep in the secondary school application process, which included a failed attempt at a nap in the car, the girls also follow up on their recent online safety episode, sharing the response it got from listeners and they also ask why school dress codes ban crop tops and shorts for young girls, and why the conversation should really be with boys, about respect. We’d love to hear what you think. Where do you stand on kids and clothes? Find a new episode every Tuesday & Friday and in the meantime check out Made By Mammas on Instagram: @madebymammas.

It’s Friday Q&A time, and this week Belle Cottingham is answering your questions on all things school and learning. How do you pick the right school for your child and what really matters beyond league tables and Ofsted reports? Belle talks through your questions on choosing a school, supporting your child’s learning at home, and helping them feel happy and confident in the classroom. Whether you’re filling in your first school application or trying to help with homework without tears (yours or theirs), make sure you listen to this one!

Today's podcast is the first of two additional episodes brought to you in partnership with Melissa & Doug. How much do our kids learn just by playing? This week we're joined by author and parenting coach Heidi Skudder to talk about learning, home schooling, and why play matters more than we think. Heidi shares what learning looks like at home, how to make it fun rather than a battle, and easy ways to turn everyday play into time well spent. Along the way we talk about some favourites from Melissa & Doug, including Sticker Wow!, and talk about how open-ended toys get little ones thinking, creating and problem-solving.
