No fear with strangers

Our little one keeps picking an adult in the weekly music class and becoming “friends” for the session with them. This week he reversed and sat on a ladies knee 😳 we both didn’t know how to react. He is so loved and gets cuddles/attention constantly. Would you be worried? Am I overreacting? Or is he just…

My daughter is 21 months old and can only say mama, dada, and nana. She babbles loads, and she understands everything we say/ask her to do but she doesn’t talk. Should I be concerned?

Hair pulling sending me crazy

My LB always pulls my hair, I tie it all up, but that doesn't stop him from grabbing the nape hairs at the back when he puts his arms around my neck to. He seems to use it as both comfort as reaches when nursing and when he is having big feelings, like a lovely cuddle or frustration. How to I get him to stop? It rea...

Just turned 4, and behaviour is wild!

My little one just turned 4, and their behaviour is so challenging at the moment. Really angry all the time, shouting, kicking, stamping feet and throwing things. It’s from zero to tantrums so quickly. Is anyone else’s like this? What can I do to help? I’m really struggling to cope now.

Autism screening ?

Apparently my 20 month old needs to be screened because he doesn’t point at things, and if I tell him to grab something and bring it to me he doesn’t listen. There aren’t any other babies or kids around since he’s an only child and his cousins are older so they don’t really have an interest in playing with him. He ...

Toddler and animals

Hi all, wondering if you could give me any advice on how to make my son understand how to be gentle with dogs/other animals? He’s in this phase at the moment (he’s 2 btw) where he thinks it’s hilarious to pull at the dogs tail and ears, even sticking his fingers in their mouth, now with bigger dogs it’s mostly the t...

Gentle baby turned diva

So my little girl was described in her 18 month old nursery assessment as gentle and quiet. She's nearly 20 months now and when I picked her up from nursery today they said she had been a diva and has been slapping staff if they told her not to do something. I was quite embarrassed and didn't really know what to sa...
