At one point or another most of us have jokingly told our children that as soon as they are old enough they’ll be packing their bags and moving out. I have definitely said this to my little girl on more than one occasion, but deep down I know that the minute she decides to leave the nest my heart will break. I'm not sure why I started contemplating on her eventually leaving the family home...

I have a friend who pretty much refuses to chat about her children. While she worships the ground they walk on, she just doesn’t feel their achievements or progress are appropriate topics of conversation when chatting with another adult, unless of course, it's her partner. “Parents only ask you about your own kids, so they can start boasting about theirs,” she told me over a glass of...

Like most mums, I go through ups and downs when it comes to my child. While the love is unconditional, the enthusiasm for family life is not always consistent. Some weeks I’m on top of things and manage to juggle work responsibilities, family commitments and mother/daughter time with next to no trouble, but then there are the other times. While I wish I could say that work takes a back seat or...

Myself and my husband decided to treat ourselves this past weekend. We reserved a table in our favourite (pre-kids) restaurant, we got dressed up and we organised a babysitter. Delighted with ourselves, we swung out of the house, hopped into a taxi and held hands as we anticipated out first proper date night in eight months. And then we spent three and a half hours talking about our children. We...

It’s easy to completely forget about your needs when you have a sweet new born baby who needs to spend every minute with you. Fist-time mums often struggle to find time to relax and rejuvenate, but nothing is impossible. If you’re tired of baby food on your clothes and greasy hair it’s time to sit down for a moment and take a breath. Remember, a happy mum makes for a happy baby! Make to take...

My daughter is a very lucky little girl and I don’t think she realises it. When I say lucky, I don’t mean in terms of getting clothes or all the toys that her heart desires (not even close), but rather that she is lucky in the incredible relationship she has with her grandparents. Growing up I myself had the pleasure of knowing my grandmother and grandfather on my dad’s side, and I vividly...

I never thought reality TV family, the Kardashians, would ever play a significant role in the relationship I share with my children, but you can’t really predict these things. When you become a mum, you realise some of the most important lessons can be born of the most innocuous or mundane events. Similarly, some of the most significant moments in you and your child’s relationship can be born...

BBC newsreader, Kate Silverton, recently revealed that the arrival of her second child heralded a massive change in her family dynamic. It’s hardly the most shocking of revelations, but it’s worthy of consideration, none the less. Kate discussed feeling torn between her children and admitted to putting one before the other, regardless of the latter’s feelings. She revealed that she’ll...

Sometimes I think my life revolves around the washing machine. No, seriously. I plan jaunts to the shop around a large grey appliance in my kitchen. I organise seeing friends around a gadget which cost more than my entire wardrobe. And I spend more time thinking about its various cycles than I ever deemed possible in my footloose and fancy free twenties. I know everyone has their own little...
