  • Best Bits - What We’ve Learned So Far
    “Number one - don’t say don’t! Try and find other ways or other words to use instead of don’t, because you’re starting with a negative.”“Right, so you’re just making it easy for a child to be defiant, because you’ve immediately given them something that they now want to do?!”It’s six months since hosts Jennie Johnson and Alistair Bryce-Clegg launched the My First Five Years podcast. To celebrate we’ve put together a selection of some of the ‘best bits’ of advice from these first episodes, including how to tackle challenging behaviour, tips on helping your child get into a sleep routine and - perhaps the most important - how to be a realistic parent! For more information and tips on your child’s early years, download the My First Five Years app: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/my-first-five-years/id1567551364Jennie Johnson MBE founded the well-respected company Kids Allowed, best in class multi-award winning and top position on independent national league table for quality.

  • Updated Potty-Training Guidance – Start From 6 Months
    “Newborn babies are very aware of their body... What happens with disposable nappies is that brain-body connection is eroded, and so then we have the very difficult problem that parents want to use a potty and the child has a very steep learning curve to assimilate all the skills that they'll need to be able to do that effectively.”  In this potty training special, you’ll hear the latest research about when to start and how to help your child – spoiler alert, it happens much earlier than you may think! My First Five Years founders Jennie Johnson and Alistair Bryce-Clegg are joined by Rebecca Mottram, Children's Nurse and Potty Training Consultant at ERIC, the Children’s Bowel and Bladder Charity, who shares tips on when to start potty-training, the lowdown on being dry at night, and how to put your child at the centre of the process and engage them in it.For more information and tips on your child’s early years, download the My First Five Years app: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/my-first-five-years/id1567551364Jennie Johnson MBE founded the well-respected company Kids Allowed, best in class multi-award winning and top position on independent national league table for quality.

  • When Should My Child Start Writing?
    “One key message that I want to get across from all of my experience working in Early Years over the past 30 years, is that by trying to push children ahead, you often set them way further back. And actually, when you hold your nerve and follow your child's lead, when they get it, they will fly with it.”  You’ll hear why writing is so much more than just putting pen to paper and how it involves everything from swinging on the monkey bars at the park to talking together, as well as top tips to make learning to write joyful and fun, with early childhood experts Alistair Bryce-Clegg and Jennie Johnson, creators of the My First Five Years app. For more information and tips on your child’s early years, download the My First Five Years app: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/my-first-five-years/id1567551364Jennie Johnson MBE founded the well-respected company Kids Allowed, best in class multi-award winning and top position on independent national league table for quality.

  • Getting Your Child To Sleep Through The Night – Everything You Need To Know
    “The term ‘sleeping through’ has so much to answer for because it suggests that some children go to bed and sleep until they wake up in the morning, and no human being sleeps like that.”  Did you know we all wake in the night multiple times, and that the so-called four-month sleep regression is actually a sleep progression? In this sleep special, you’ll hear the lowdown on children’s sleep from child sleep expert Lauren Peacock, with hosts Jennie Johnson and Alistair Bryce-Clegg. It’s packed with plenty of hints, tips and hacks to help you navigate your child’s sleep and find what works for your family.  For more information and tips on your child’s early years, download the My First Five Years app: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/my-first-five-years/id1567551364Jennie Johnson MBE founded the well-respected company Kids Allowed, best in class multi-award winning and top position on independent national league table for quality.
