Knowledge didn’t automatically make parenting feel easy.

I’ve been a doctor for over 15 years, caring for women, babies and families through some of life’s biggest transitions. On paper, I was well prepared for parenthood. Then I had children of my own.

I discovered that knowledge about babies didn’t automatically make parenting feel easy. I had every qualification on the wall and still lay awake wondering if I was getting it right.

I realised the most valuable thing I could offer parents wasn’t more information. It was a way to make sense of the information they were already receiving, and the confidence to find their own way.
