Dr Helen Simmons, Senior Lecturer in Education, shares with us her work on promoting partnerships with parents which are respectful, meaningful and inclusive. Angelica and Helen discuss that there is no formula or recipe for good parenting; losing your identity when becoming a mother; the importance of connection over knowledge and even advice; fathers feeling welcomed on a local and policy level; how we can gain families' trust in services and support networks; where does parental doubt come from...and much more.
