Supporting your child’s brain development day-to-day With Izzy JuddMy mind has been completely blown to learn that a child’s brain is 90% grown by 5 years old.

So, during these crucial years, we have to recognise how we can support little ones all whilst juggling the logistics of life – be it work, a household, other children - you name it, it can feel

How exercise can help you prepare for birth and postpartum recovery Kat - Founder of Hatch Athletic Exercise in pregnancy may well be a powerful tool in supporting you to achieve a positive birth and a smoother recovery postpartum but often the thing holding women back from truly embracing it is a lack of knowledge around the topic, fear of causing harm to their body or baby and the sea of conflicting, non-expert information that exists pretty much everywhere.
