How to Avoid Gender Stereotypes

Charlotte, Charlie and Millie discuss gender stereotypes such as subliminal messages that are sent to us via the clothes children wear,

The ladies discuss hints and tips on how to try and make a home more inclusive.

What language we, as professionals, catch ourselves saying and why we should not use certain phrases. Even reading books and the questions we ask children can have an unconscious bias. These topics all need to be recognised and discussed, Charlotte, Charlie and Millie acknowledge they only just scratch the surface of this topic. Much more work remains to be done by them and other professionals.

Listener Question:

Hi What The Nanny Heard,

I listened to your episode the other week about potty training.

The 2 and ½ year old I am looking after is doing really well with wees but will not poo in the potty or the toilet. He will hold it until he has a nappy on at nap time or bedtime then shout for me to change him, then go to sleep. What should I do?
