61) School year is near - are we ready? with Dr Naomi

In this episode, Eva and Maren are joined by Dr. Naomi Gibson, our resident psychologist, to explore the whirlwind of emotions parents face when their children start school. The transition to school can bring up a mix of excitement, anxiety, and even nostalgia—and surprisingly, our own childhood experiences often shape how we respond to this pivotal moment.

Dr. Gibson helps us unpack how parents' memories and emotions about school can unconsciously affect the way we support our children through their school transition. Together, they discuss strategies for managing these complex feelings, ensuring that parents can create an emotionally safe and empowering environment for their child as they begin their educational journey.

Key takeaways include:

  • How parents can recognize and manage their own emotional responses to the school transition.

  • Practical tips for offering emotional support and encouragement to children starting school.

  • Insights into how parental experiences with school can shape the way children approach this new chapter.

Whether it’s the first day of school or the first time your child is facing a new learning environment, this episode provides valuable tools and strategies to help parents navigate the emotional rollercoaster of school transitions—ensuring your child’s start to school is a positive and empowering experience.
