“For children to experience a full range of emotions, so needed for a healthy repertoire as they grow into adulthood, they need situations where they feel slightly out of control; laughter, fear, anger are all essential parts of growing. Playful rough and tumble games provide many of these emotions. The most important element to this is the safety net of an emotionally consistent caregiver. When your child can experience all their highs and lows in safety knowing that you’ll be their rock, their constant, their immovable force to protect them if/when they need it.”

“We know the Homestead inside out: every root, undulation and branch. We know which way the path turns and where to dodge the tangling brambles, where to leap the mud puddle and where to watch our step on the slippery slopes. We know the best places to rest and where to see the stars twinkling. This is a place our souls know.”

“The more we know about childhood and how children develop, the more we realise that these brilliant growing children are so much more capable than we give them credit for. Those frustrating words, “I can do it” proving that, actually, they probably can do it, given a little extra time and space. When we step back and give our children a little freedom, their independence and sense of self flourishes.”
“As the blackbirds and robins scuffle amongst the mosses looking for tasty treats, they uncover snowdrops beginning to poke through. I love to think of this symbiotic relationship. The birds in their search for grubs uncover the little shoots of green, leaving patches of earth free from debris and clear to find the sun. The snowdrops then shoot towards the light and beautifully bloom. In my mind though, this happens in the new year… so each December when I spot a tiny bud of green poking through I’m always pleasantly surprised”
