Customer Reviews
Best relatable podcast ever!!
Not quite twin’s but having 2 under two has been the journey of a lifetime, you guys brighten up my early mornings more than you’ll ever realise!! Would love one of the books for my little book crazy toddler!
Prefer it when it’s just the two of them
Ollie and Gareth are naturally funny and charming. Prefer it when it’s just the two of them chatting, not interviewing.
Thank you
I’m a bit late to the party on this because, well, life! As a mum of a 4year old and 2year I just want to say thank you. My 2year still doesn’t sleep and sometimes in my exhaustion I feel lonely. I listened to the first episode and cried, I don’t want advise or tips and finally I have found a place that understands that!! The second episode got me again. My son was resuscitated at birth, I was under GA. Neither of us present for the birth due to the rush of emergency c. He was straight into NCU. It’s been years but still gets me. It’s nice to hear other people talk of their experience and how it’s a whole little community. Looking forward to listening to the other episodes and hope I will catch up soon!! Good luck guys, you are great x
