Re: Advice needed: my toddler hits other children

My toddler also hits from time to time. I explain to her that I don't hit her, therefore she shouldn't hit others. I also tell her if she hits again we'll go home / I'll put her in her room. I find forcing an apology rarely works at this age.

Re: Unschooling

Would something like this not be a better alternative? Its formal schooling,but with the curriculum customised for each child. http://www.curiouserandco.co.uk/

Re: nurseries taking babies off-site?

Hi, I think this is standard practice. My LO not only goes to local parks with her nursery but the post office, petting farms, museums, train stations etc. We were required to give blanket permission for all outings when we enrolled her. There are two planned outings per month plus some ad-hoc local...

Re: Baby Weaning

I think it's ideal to wait until 6 months, but not always practical. Every baby is different, where 4-5 months is way to young, 5-6 months is not bad in my opinion. I weaned my baby at 5 months on paediatrician's advice (baby vomited often and paediatrician thought it would help - initially tried co...

Re: Competition to win a photo shoot in SW London

thought I'd mention, Sacha did some gorgeous maternity photos for me as well. I was a bit nervous before hand, but she worked so hard to put me at ease and I honestly couldn't have been happier with the results! I recently saw some STUNNING maternity photos on her facebook page - the mama-to-be was ...

Re: Competition to win a photo shoot in SW London

What an amazing competition! I highly recommend Sacha, she's very talented. Sacha has taken some gorgeous photos of my daughter (at various times from baby to toddler).

Re: Hello I'm new here quick question

My daughter's clothing also often comes back covered in paint. The home made play doh is the absolute worst to wash out - it cooks in the washing machine and leaves the clothing covered in hard bits! I did eventually give some feedback to our nursery about the clothing - they sent me an essay explai...

Re: Christening present ideas please

What about a silver charm bracelet? I bought one with three age appropriate charms when my goddaughter was christened. On every birthday and Christmas since, I've added a new charm representing the previous year in her life. I bought the bracelet in a big child size rather than baby size so that it ...
