In this bumper episode I’m in conversation with Alexia Leachman about childbirth, Liat Hughes Joshi about her Technology parenting tips, Sarah Cressall from The Creation Station about Creativity, Anne Marie Christian about Safeguarding & Kathryn Peckham about School Readiness.
Alexia is the host of the Fear Free Childbirth podcast, and a therapeutic coach who works with women to help them to prepare – and have – a confidently, fearless birth. She used to have Tokophobia – extreme fear of pregnancy & birth – and she overcame it during her second trimester and which lead her to her website which will help you to enjoy a stress-free pregnancy and prepare yourself for a fear free birth.

She has written five parenting books, including ‘5-Minute Parenting Fixes’ ‘New Old-fashioned Parenting’, ‘How to Unplug Your Child’, and ‘Raising Children: The Primary Years.’
Sarah Cressall. When Sarah became mum to Sam, Ollie and Josh, she recognised the lack of activities that nurtured each child’s own individual curiosity. It seemed more about putting information in rather than nurturing what was within to blossom.
Sarah developed educationally based creative arts and crafts programmes, with the support of her three boys, Sam Ollie and Josh – the chief testers (!), Duncan her husband, and her tech-savvy sister Fran Long. She is the founder of The Creation Station which helps unleash the wonder within, through fun and educational arts and crafts, classes, parties, events and products. They are very proud to be a multi-award-winning, five-star rated company, and they inspire over 14,500 children and families every week with their creative arts and crafts experiences across the UK.
