The Enriching Environments Podcast Charlotte Awdry

All about babies - in this episode we looked at how to follow our child's natural path of development joyfully.


We dove into a huge shift in our perspective of babies - how we can move from a position of wanting to contain them, to respecting them, seeing how capable they are.


All babies need is connection- movement and communication ❤️

❤️ INTRODUCING THE RAISE CHANGE MAKERS JOURNEY ✨️🌎

This is not your usual eco/green type of community where you’d learn practical tips and do’s and don’ts –

It is much more than that. It is much more than sharing knowledge about sustainability. 

It is also about raising children using a parenting philosophy that is scientifically proven, time tested and grows us into the best version of ourselves as Parents and Caregivers. 

It is about self-care, self-love and being a whole human.

 It is about connection to ourselves, connection to our children, the kind of mindfulness we need within before we could think about being mindful about our planet and the environment. 

It all starts within us, breaking those inner barriers so that our children grow up naturally seeing and experiencing the connection to the planet and humanity. 

It is a safe space to support conscious, high-quality bonding between parents and children while raising little change makers who care about all life on Earth. 

Charlotte from @enrichingenvironments and Ivana @ivybogbu have teamed up to create a comprehensive guide that combines our expertise, ensuring you have the knowledge and tools to raise future change makers who are kind to themselves, others, and the environment.

For our Top Tip Tuesday Masterclass this evening on Sustainable Families. I was joined by the wonderful @ivyogbu to dive into the positive changes we can all make for a more sustainable future for us all.  Clarity, Practicality and a Call to Action. This is what we need to be able to discuss, expand and move forward with the complex topic of Sustainability.  We opened our hearts and cleared our minds to have a shift in the way we FEEL about sustainability, and how this can translate to simple, tangible daily actions that become part of the fabric of our family.  We join hands as we raise this next generation of capable, compassionate, contributors. 

 "Sustainable development is about making sure that we can meet the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It's not just about the environment, although the environment is a big part of it. Sustainable development also involves economic and social factors."  

Thank you for joining me @ivyogbu.

During this Top Tip Tuesday Masterclass on Instagram Live this evening we looked at how we should we respond whenour children are being irrational, unreasonable and impossible. 

🤔 Some of the 'issues' that we face with our children can be attributed to the mismatch that occurs between our expectations, and their immaturity, both in age and in brain development. 

😅 Moments of dysregulation (for our children and for ourselves) are when the thinking brain goes 'offline'. 

 ❤️ As our child, learns, grows and develops in their impulse control (with our support), can we too learn to ride the waves of their emotional expression and not get caught up in it?

In this episode of our Top Tip Tuesday Masterclass we launched my forthcoming pioneering Programme  The Enriching Environments Embodied Parenting Journey.

Beginning on the New Moon of February 20th, this Programme is a sacred container of deep respect and compassion; designed for Parents and Educators who are ready to be agents for change for a new world, for today’s children and future generations.

Bringing together the gifts of Montessori philosophy, the latest research on attachment, child development and neuroscience, embodied expression and spirituality, this Programme will guide us all on a journey of self-discovery- to find our true North, our power as we guide this new generation – these capable, compassionate contributors.

Diving deep into the 5 gifts of Embodied Parenting, we come together in ceremony every month with a 2 hour group Mentoring session harnessing the power and energy of the New Moon.

This Programme has the potential to transform your relationship with yourself and your inner child, nourish and nurture your parent-child dynamic and cultivate deep connections with the children in your nursery or classroom.

Thank you for joining me!

This was a great question from a client recently; and a common one too, a Montessori Education isn't accessible to everyone (yet), logistically, financially, physically, so how can we live by these beautiful values even if they are not being echoed at school?

In this session we dove deep into 3 ways we can cultivate a Montessori mindset and live a Montessori way of life; regardless of the schooling system that our child is in.

1)’Follow the child’, follow their natural development, nurture their uniqueness.

2) Nurturing autonomy, preparing a simple, ordered and accessible home, treading lightly on our beautiful planet, the interdependence of all things, deep respect of self and others.

3) The Spiritual Preparation of the Adult - nurturing ourselves, understanding ourselves, healing ourselves so we can gift all of this to our children.
