With Harvey now well into three-year-old kinder, we thought it was the perfect time to welcome back Catharine Hydon to KICBUMP to talk through the transition to four-year-old kinder, as well as answer all your kinder questions. 

Catharine Hydon is an independent early childhood consultant and Director of Hydon Consulting where she works with a wide range of organisations and governments.

We had Catharine on KICBUMP last year, before Harvey started kinder. In this episode, Steph reflects on everything they’ve learned, including Harvey’s cognitive, social & emotional development since starting kinder, and also ask Catharine’s perspective on their next move to four-year-old kinder.

We answer your questions too, like what children can expect in a standard day, when to start looking for a kinder, how often they should attend, and more. 

Thanks to the Victorian Government again for making this episode of KICBUMP possible.

All of the lessons that Steph learned with Harvey that she’ll do again, or leave behind, for baby number two! 

Last year we posted a question box about Steph’s second pregnancy and sooo many of your questions were about what Steph will do differently this time around - so we’ve put all the things together in this episode.

Think - nappies, monitors, communication, sleep routines, transitioning to solids, and more.

Georgie Sian is mum to two-year-old Frankie and five-month-old Billie and one half of the TikTok account Georgie and Zac with her partner. Georgie shares her life open and vulnerably online but this week Georgie sits down with Steph in her first podcast interview.

Georgie shares about the differences between Frankie & Billie’s births, including delivering a breech baby (Frankie) vaginally, and an emergency Caesarean (Billie), the post-partum experience for both, including hair-loss, intrusive thoughts, and Dysphoric Milk Ejaculation Reflex, and how her relationship with her partner Zac has changed since welcoming a second bub into their family.

From Georgie: Kids are meant to push boundaries so it's our job to firmly hold boundaries with love. Modelling the way we want them to deal with situations is so important because they learn from what they see not what they are told.

In this episode Steph catches up with Dara to check in with how she is going with her first-born Lando and her second pregnancy. They chat through Dara’s career as a DJ, finding the balance between motherhood and work, being away from Lando while touring, mum guilt, and just how much fun it is to be a mum too.
