In today’s episode, Siobhan has a chat with Tiffany from @simplifyingchildhood. They talk about all things play-based and child-led learning and discuss the problems associated with the current push for formalised education in the early years, including the focus on attainment and success over relationship. They also have an interesting discussion about the place of ‘self-care’ in motherhood. You can find Tiffany at https://simplifyingchildhood.com.au/ or on Instagram at @simplifyingchildhood.

In this episode, we talk about Australia's stolen generation and the impact this has had on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' attachment to community and country. The following link is to a testimony from a woman who was stolen - https://www.stolengenerationstestimonies.com/donna-meehan.html
We also discuss Jacinta Ardern's decision to step aside as the New Zealand Prime Minister, daycare drop-off challenges, and being “too proud” (or not) to ask for help (particularly in early parenthood).
-
In this episode, we chat with two amazing women - Bec and Krista. Krista has a medical condition that means she is unable to fall pregnant, and when she shared this information with her friend Bec, Bec offered to act as her surrogate. As a result, Krista is now mum to a beautiful 8-month-old baby girl! Bec and Krista very generously share with us the highs and lows of their journey and how they navigated both the legal and medical hurdles involved. We are so honoured and grateful that they shared their story with us - and we are so excited to share it with you.

We start this year the way we left the last, with chaos! In this episode, we chat about how we celebrated Christmas and the gifts we gave our toddlers (some were immediate winners, others have taken time). We also talk about the whining phase, the onslaught of “why's” from our toddlers, what is happening with daytime naps and what we’re planning to do in 2023 (apart from Siobhan giving birth and Kristyn trying to find another job because hers finishes in January 2024)!

Buckle in because Siobhan and Kristyn are exhausted and burnt out after of long year of researching, social media-ing, podcasting, parenting, working in child cares and so on. The effects of this show in the pure chaos that is this episode. Kristyn talks about her horror experiences in academia as a woman and a mother. The girls chat about casual, systemic and culturally ingrained sexual assault and harassment. They jump around topics A LOT. Kristyn realises she has more than one friend and now has absolutely no idea what to do with that knowledge or friendship. They talk autism, disability, gendered norms and stereotypes.
They also discuss teaching kids about boundaries around physical affection and how its not obligatory after receiving gifts. Its the last episode of the year and wow, it was long, chaotic and full of so. many. belly laughs. and quite a few swear words (so watch out for those little ears when listening). This is Kristyn, Siobhan and the Parenting Unpacked team signing off for the year, we will see you in the new year, hopefully rested, restored and rejuvenated (but let’s be honest we will probably be exhausted, tired and shattered after two weeks of bringing Christmas joy to our toddlers.) -
Journal club is back for its final 2022 installment! This week we are talking about a new sleep training study that's been making A LOT of (unfounded) headlines. So, to help you parse fact from fiction, to give you an insight into the strengths and weaknesses of this research AND to help you figure out what the research ACTUALLY says (hint it is definitely not what the media is saying) tune in and listen.
-
In this episode of parenting unpacked we chat with Dr. Jess Stokes Parish.
Jess is an ICU nurse, researcher, and science communicator. She has created a really useful template called CRABS which helps you interpret the reliability of the information you see on social media.
Also, Siobhan is back and healthy (and hiding in a cupboard in an effort to improve our audio quality)!

Welcome back to journal club! This week we're all about the new article on mothers' tendency to apologize to their children and how it impacts their behavior. Watch along to hear about the findings and what we think! On today's journal club we have Jess Guy @infantsleepscientist, Laura Gainche @scienceforallwomen and Cara Goodwin @parentingtranslator. Check out the full article here: https://tinyurl.com/34jefyuf

In this episode, Kristyn has a chat with Lopamudra Goswami. Lopa is an Indian research scholar currently pursuing her doctoral studies at Griffith University in Australia. Her research since 2014 has revolved around Indian surrogate mothers in Gujarat (once known to be the surrogacy capital of the world) and Karnataka, which has lent itself towards her Ph.D. thesis. She is invested in gaining a deeper understanding of mental health in surrogate mothers post relinquishment of their surrogate babies and in offering safe transition spaces for the mothers' post-delivery. Through her research, she is hoping to draw more focus on the surrogate mothers themselves and develop an interpretation of their surrogacy experience through their personal lens. Lopa has in-depth field experience in collecting data from rural areas in India and works relentlessly towards being more involved in fieldwork than being at her work desk.

In this episode of Parenting Unpacked we talk with baby & toddler holistic sleep coach, and fellow scientist, Dr. Laura Gainche @scienceforallwomen.
We talk about the variation in infant sleep, why wake windows, pitch-black rooms, and white noise might not work for your child, and how tiny changes can have a huge impact.
We also dive into a little bit of the science behind Santa with much more to come in the next (or a future) episode,
And you'll get to hear a little about journal club which is heading to this podcast feed very soon!

Helloooooo parenting unpacked crew! We're dropping something a little bit different into the feed this week, it's called journal club. I know I know, you're probably asking "WTF is journal club!?" Journal club is something we do in universities where we all read the same academic paper and then we meet to talk about it. It gives us a chance to stretch our critical insight muscles, helps the junior academics learn from the senior academics and honestly let's us all learn from each other. Each person in journal club has a different set of knowledge and expertise that they bring to the table and we all get to learn from each other. Usually these meetings happen behind closed doors high up in the ivory tower, but I managed to find myself a wonderful crew of scientists who wanted to tear down the ivory tower with me and bring journal club directly to your ears. So please join us as we walk you through an article, discuss it's findings, it's methodology and statistics, and expand upon it using our own knowledge in the area. I hope it is interesting for those of you who tune in. Please jump onto @drkristynsommer and put your own thoughts or questions on the journal club video there if you have any! We would love love loveeeee to hear from you!!!!
I'll post the upcoming journal club paper every week @drkristynsommer and @parentingunpackedpodcast if you'd like to have a go at reading ahead. We're going to try to read only open access papers that you can get outside of institutions but it might not always be possible (because sometimes there's a really important article to read that is paywalled - like next weeks article!)
This week we are reading "Parents’ Use of Social Media as a Health Information Source for Their Children: A Scoping Review" which you can access here: https://tinyurl.com/2s4x9k4b
Joining journal club this week was Emma Shipton (@mama_together_), Jess Guy (@infantsleepscientist), Lisa Dillon (@drlisa.researcher) and Kristyn Sommer (@drkristynsommer).
A quick heads up: you will hear tiny human noises in the background. We are not just scientists and science communicators, but we are also mothers, some of us are still on maternity leave. So if you hear a tiny human in the background, be in awe of the fact that the tiny human's mother was able to focus and translate the science while juggling a tiny human without so much as missing a step (hint: it was Lisa, she's a rockstar!!)
