I’ve just been lucky enough to block listen to each podcast on an ‘essential’ journey’ back to London from Wales. I’m happy to say I’ve got a new energy within my mindset. An awesome insight into how my 3yo might/will find this new world of learning at home. We’ve battled through but this has settled my mind in a positive sense. Many thanks guys – keep up the good work. 👏🏽

These podcasts are so full of brilliant information which is clear that is backed up with years of experience and knowledge but delivered in a way that’s very easy to understand. Thank you Treasure Time!
I really enjoyed listening. even taking the time to sit and have a cuppa while listening, helped me to feel calmer ;0) As a busy and still working Mum of 3, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and pressurise myself and the children over school work. Listening helped me to reassess my thought process and I’m looking forward to taking on some ideas :0)
