How the Right Nanny Shapes Your Baby or Toddler’s Development

August 27, 2025

The first five years of a child’s life are extraordinary. Research shows that 90% of brain development happens before age five. In these years, children learn not only how to walk and talk, but how to connect, trust, and see the world. That’s why choosing the right nanny is about so much more than supervision. The right nanny can nurture your child’s body, mind, and soul in those formative years, shaping habits, confidence, and emotional wellbeing that last a lifetime.

Babies, Events, Parenting, Toddlers

April 18, 2025

Motherhood has been the most rewarding journey, but at times, it’s also felt isolating. As a longtime dancer, I longed for a space where I could move, reconnect with myself—and bring my baby along. When I couldn’t find that space, I created it. Groove & Grow was born from my desire to blend the joy of dance with early motherhood, offering a supportive community for pregnant mums and new parents. That’s why I started running Baby Dance Club classes: the existing options were either just for babies or solely for parents—and in “mums and bubs” classes, you had to stop…

What is the right age to start toilet training?

February 3, 2025

Daytime wee (urinary) and poo (faecal) toilet training is usually achieved by 4 years of age. But how do you know when is the right time or age to start toilet training your child? The answer isn’t one-size-fits-all; rather, it’s a consideration that involves understanding your child’s developmental readiness and resources available. Toilet training readiness signs Most children start training between 18 and 24 months of age (Albaramki, et al., 2017). There is no consensus in the research on if there is a best time to toilet or potty train, which or how many readiness signs to use before starting…
