School Transition Anxiety: How Parents' Own Memories Shape Their Child’s First Day with Dr Naomi

As the summer ends and the school year approaches, the "back-to-school" nerves aren’t reserved just for the children. In this episode of Dam Parenting, Eva and Maren are joined by resident psychologist Dr. Naomi Gibson to take a warm, honest, and direct look at the emotional whirlwind parents face during school transitions. Surprisingly, how we support our children often has less to do with their behavior and more to do with our own childhood school experiences.

We explore how to recognize when your own past academic anxieties are driving your current parenting choices. Dr. Naomi provides practical strategies for managing your own "inner schoolchild" so you can show up as a calm, empowering anchor for your little one. Whether your child is entering Groep 1 or moving to a new school, this episode offers the tools to separate your history from their future, ensuring their educational journey starts with confidence—and yours starts with peace.
