Great to see this and well done to the NCT team including Vicky Fobel Abi Wood Sarah McMullen who led the campaign to get the GP postnatal checks guaranteed for all women six years ago.

Campaigners move on but good policy changes continue to make a difference!!

One of my highlights from 2023 was seeing Jane from Magpie Project speak so powerfully at the PEDAL conference. I’ve been such a huge fan of Jane & Magpie since we gave evidence to parliament together during COVID.

This is a beautiful music video their mums and minis have made

đŸ’Ș đŸ’Ș for all the parents managing work deadlines, christmas prep, the demands of primary schools at Xmas, ( & poorly kids, train strikes etc).

It’s nearly the point where either it’s done, or it’s not done and maybe we realise it didn’t really matter anyway

Love this quote. So sorry to miss this celebration, which I was hugely looking forward to. Train strikes made it impossible for me to get there today 😞

This reflects political choices. And not the choices of a government which values children’s rights, wellbeing or social justice.

Even if gov cares only about economic growth, this is short sighted for these children are not only precious citizens, they are our future workforce.

Pleasure to be part of this work. So important we were able to call for investment in services which support babies’ mental health in order for children to be on a positive developmental trajectory.

'Dr Alain Gregoire, the president of the MMHA, said the “unacceptable” situation Allin-Khan had revealed was mainly due to most services trying in vain to meet demand despite having sometimes significant shortages of doctors, nurses and therapists.' theguardian.com/society/2023/d

37% of children diagnosed with autism before age 3 no longer met diagnostic criteria at age 5-7 years. “Non-persistent autism”. Interesting.

Do you think “people overall” includes children? (As the members of the population actually observing & experiencing teachers & classrooms).

This feels like a lot of judgement of teachers and the kids in the classroom, without a lot of curiosity about what’s actually happening.

It’s really important that we talk more about the developmental issues faced by kids in our early years settings & reception classes.

This is not about blaming anyone. We all need to be curious about how to meet these kids’ needs, & how we get more babies off to the best start.

Twitter friends,

I’m creating a library for our Mobilise participants.

Please can you recommend books about early child development (from all angles), play, rights, children/family policy & related issues.

I’m looking for relatively east reads - not text books. TIA 😊
