Very interesting morning completing online training with NSPCC Learning Always great to speak with other colleagues across the country and listen to their experiences. Every day is a school day! 🤓

Busy busy busy today, calling lots of families to get their little ones registered with a dentist this morning & then supporting more families at their dental appointments this afternoon. Good job I had some help from cheeky chimp! 🦷🪥

Lovely morning attending our first baby shower event at Blackpool FC Been busy talking to expectant families about healthy start vouchers & child benefit along with relaying positive messages about bonding with bump & baby and signposting to local services 😊 Better Start

Also had the opportunity to take part in some filming at the event so I have fancy hair today! 😂

Because the first 1001 days are a period of rapid development, early experiences affect not only babies' emotional wellbeing now but also influences how their bodies and brains develop. We can start helping baby whilst still unborn. #IMHAW2023 #perinatalmentalhealth #dadmattersuk

My eldest wouldn't walk with me on the school run this morning. Not entirely sure why.. just a normal day at work!
