    Baby Led Weaning (Introducing Your Little to Solids)

    There are many different approaches to introducing solids to your baby. As a mama who has done this 5 times, I share the approach that has worked well for us. This is based upon experience and research. What is baby led weaning? It is when you offer your baby food from your family meals cut up into finger sized foods allowing them to self-feed. We discuss: -How to know your baby is ready for solids -How to introduce high-allergen foods -The difference between choking and gagging -Benefits of the BLW method   Resources: Baby-Led Weaning: The Essential Guide by Gill Rapley, PhD, and Tracey Murkett   Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.

    NHC Family~ Raising Lie Detectors

    Our children are going to face lies. Some lies come from within their own minds, and others come from outside influences. We know from God's Word that Satan is the father of lies. How can we as Christian parents equip our children to take a stand for truth in a culture that says there is no truth? Join Simeon and Brettnay as they talk about the importance of...

    The Abiding Mother

    How do I find joy in motherhood? How do I grow in patience as a mother? How can I be more gentle in my responses to my children? We all ask those questions as mothers. There is no doubt that motherhood is a sanctifying work. The fruit of the spirit (joy, patience, gentleness) aren't things we can "work up" on our own. Growth can only be accomplished through the Holy Spirit's work in us! Developing the fruit of the spirit in our lives is a byproduct of abiding in Christ. We need to be abiding mothers! Mothers who abide in CHrist- His power, His Word, His strength, His forgiveness, His love.   Scriptures Referenced: Psalm 61:4; 91:1 Proverbs 19:23 John 15:1-10 I Corinthians 7:20   Resources:NHC Podcast: Supermom     Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.

    Supermom

    Have you ever tried to keep all the plates beautifully spinning only to find broken pieces shattered at your feet? I think most mamas have been there. We juggle alot, and on top of that, we often put expectatons on ourselves that do not align with what God expects of us. This causes us to leave in defeat, guilt, and comparison. We look around and see "supermoms". But what is supermom? And is that a goal we should strive for? Join me as I share how God has worked in my heart as I've pondered these motherhood questions.   Resources: NHC Podcast: A Quiet, Contented Heart with Erin Bates Paine   Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.

    NHC Family~ Couples of the Bible: Abraham & Sarah

    Abraham and Sarah are the father and mother of God's chosen people, Israel. They set an amazing example of faith as they leave all they know in the city of Ur, and set out to follow God into the unknown. But they also make some big mistakes, some of which cause a lack of unity in major aspects of their marriage.  Join us as we look into the famous laugh of Sarah. As we study the context and the Hebrew meaning of the word used for Sarah's laugh, you will find a truth that will help our marriages.   Scriptures Referenced: Genesis 17:15; 21 Ecclesiastes 4:9   Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.

    Homeschooling in the Little Years

    For many, a new school year has begun. I have heard from mamas who are launching out into homeschooling their little ones, and they have so many concerns and fears. We all want to put our child on a path of success, but what does that really look like? Do we need to get it all right from day 1? Do we need to have rigourous curriculum and push to be above average in every area? Or can we take a deep breath and give us and our children freedom to fall in love with a lifestyle of learning? I share things I've learned from my experience homeschooling, research, books, and advice from other mamas. I hope this will be a help to those who are starting out on this beautiful journey!   Resources: NHC Podcast~ Sage Advice from a Homeschooling Mom with Rachel Woodward NHC Blog~ My Favorite Books on Homeschooling Read Aloud Revival: Sally Clarkson's Advice for Her Younger Self NHC YouTube: Our Favorite Resources and Activities for Little Ones     Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.
