I am also a mom of 3. This podcast is full of top tips! Thank you.
Dr. Hilary’s advice is life-transforming. We have tried so many things and listened to so many experts but nothing worked or “clicked” until now. You can’t help a child without helping the parents, and Dr. Hilary has such a wide range of experience and knowledge. I wish everyone listened to her!
This is my favorite parenting podcast- Hilary is so caring and so practical in her approach it makes so much sense to me and actually her tips are really helpful, doable and they work. Highly recommend!
I so appreciate that Dr Hilary brings so much empathy to everything she does. Amazing.
