Don't wake the baby!

Working mums & dads | Parents discuss balancing full time jobs with raising kids

Emma and Elliot Season 4 Episode 16

Returning to work after a baby, our jobs, work-life balance, working from home... This is the one where Emma and Elliot discuss maternity and paternity leave, fitting in work around a baby and toddler, and failing at having a healthy work-life balance. Have things changed from the 90s? Are you a stay-at-home parent? How do you find time for the full-time job that is parenting!?

This is part of our summer throwback to our past episodes from 2 years ago, re-edited and re-released for 2025. Enjoy these classic conversations if you're not busy over the summer, and we'll be back with exciting new topics from September

Unwind on sleepless nights to a wholesome mix of parenting stories, quirky humour, and cosy crafting. We’re not here to provide answers but to share our experiences, explore how parenting has changed, and build an online community of parents for mutual support.

A fun, honest and unscripted conversation between Emma and Elliot on non-judgemental parenting and millennial-based topics, as we relax on an evening attempting an artistic or creative activity. 

We are a project in partnership with The Kairos Movement and supported by The Methodist Church, of which The Kairos Movement is a part
