Raising You goes live! 🥂

Sleep Disordered Breathing…
This week I speak to the amazing Dr David McIntosh about sleep disordered breathing / airway obstruction and the enormous impact it’s having on our little ones - without us even realising.

SO many little ones are misdiagnosed with ADHD and behavioural issues without ever having their sleep and airway considered. David is so passionate about changing that narrative.

If your little ones snore or mouth breathe, or if you don’t know the answer to that question - listening to this episode is a must!

Episode will be live on Tuesday! 🎙️

Welcome to Raising You!
I'm Lauren, Mum of two beautiful boys; Reuben and Lonnie.

Just like you, I'm navigating my way through the complete chaos of trying to raise little people while working, trying to maintain a marriage, pay off a mortgage and not go completely insane!

There's no book, guide or Pinterest post to answer the endless questions and doubts we have about our kids and their ever changing needs; so I've made it my mission to create a space to get some of those answers.

Each week, I'll interview a new guest speaker and discuss a new topic - from speech and language, sleep, emotional regulation, ADHD, school readiness.. and everything in between.

The aim is to give you the knowledge and guidance to make this journey that little bit easier, and to have you feeling better knowing that we're all just as confused as each other.

So welcome! Let's get through this chaotic journey together
