​Please take a look at the range of articles and blogs I have pulled together especially for parents.
I know how challenging being a parent can be at times, and I've had formal training in understanding early childhood development and many years putting into practice what I have learnt! In the articals below I hope to provide some support for parents. I don't for one moment consider myself and 'expert' or believe I have all the answers. However, drawing on my professional training and experience and combine this with the realities of being a parent to provide practical tips and ideas.

Let me know if there are any areas you would like further information on. You can do this via the contact form at the bottom of the page or by asking a question on our dedicated Cambridge Early Years parents Facbook page.
