All my children love the water. They have enjoyed splashing about in a pool, the sea or even just the bath since a really young age! Over the years I have found it tough to take all three of them swimming by myself. Most pools have restrictions about the ratio of adults to children you can have under a certain age. It’s become one of those activities we can only really do with another pair of hands. I did lessons with Lottie when she was a baby and if I’m honest it was just stressful, she really cried because it was…
There’s nothing that beats that feeling of finding that perfect pair of shoes. Whether they cost the Earth or not is often irrelevant! But did you know that some types of shoe can actually cause more harm than good? Sure, they look great, but are they wreaking havoc? Or setting you up for pain in the future? Of course, if you suffer from foot problems visiting a foot clinic is often the best idea – but they do say that prevention is better than cure!

We headed over on a gorgeous sunny August day to discover all the island had to offer. As someone who has lived in the Poole area my whole life it’s shocking that this was only the second time I have ever visited. The last being a…
I can’t believe this time next week Lottie will be back at nursery and it will be her last year before starting big school! It’s going to be the end of an era for us as we’ve been going back and forth to that nursery for years; all the girls have attended at one point or another and we have such a great relationship with all the staff.
