Little Steps, Big Futures:The Podcast
The First Day: Starting Preschool Together
In this episode, Aoife and Jenny dive into the big transition of starting preschool — what it feels like for children taking those first steps and for parents learning to let go a little. They share the ups and downs of this milestone, from first-day jitters to moments of pride, and offer ideas on how families can make the process smoother for everyone.
Along the way, they also explore the thoughtful choices parents face when it comes to sharing these special moments online, and how to celebrate memories while still protecting children’s privacy.
