🩷 Today is World Cancer Day, a gentle reminder of how important it is to know your own body and what feels normal for you.

🩵 Small changes are often nothing to worry about, but you are the expert on your own body. If something feels different, lasts longer than expected, or just does not feel quite right, trusting your instincts and getting it checked can bring reassurance and peace of mind.

💚 Having these conversations does not need to feel scary. Early checks are about care, not fear, and most of the time, they lead to reassurance.

❤️ Today, we are thinking of everyone affected by cancer, directly or indirectly. Sending love, kindness, and support to you.

🔷️ Would you know how to tell if your child has worms?

🔹️ You can spot worms in your poo. They look like pieces of white thread.

🔹️ You might also see them around your child's bottom (a**s). The worms usually come out at night while your child is sleeping.

🔶️ You can buy medicine (mebendazole) for threadworms from pharmacies. This is usually a chewable tablet or liquid you swallow.

🔸️ Treat everyone in your household, even if they do not have symptoms.

🔹️Tell the pharmacist if you need to treat a child under 2, or if you're pregnant or breastfeeding. Treatment might not be suitable, and you may need to speak to a GP.

🔹️ Medicine kills the threadworms, but it does not kill the eggs. Eggs can live for up to 2 weeks outside the body.

✔️Here are some do’s and don’ts for dealing with threadworms.

✅️ SAVE this post in case you ever need to refer to it.

🔷️ As a new parent or caregiver, the internet can feel overwhelming—full of misleading or incorrect information. In my classes, I emphasise the importance of using evidence - and research-based sites.

🔶️ Follow these simple rules to find health information that is reliable and safe:

🔹 Use Reliable Sources – Look for websites ending in .org, .edu, or .gov. Be cautious with .com sites.
🔹 Check References – Articles should cite credible, peer-reviewed sources. Avoid info that can’t be verified.
🔹️ Check the Author – Make sure the author has expertise in the topic. A doctor in one field isn’t always an expert in another.

( sites are for information only, always consult a healthcare professional with any questions or concerns about your or your child’s health)

🔷️ Did you know our friendly trainers will come to your home to deliver our 2 hour baby and child first aid class?

🔹️We know it can be tricky to get out of the house with little ones in tow, so why not put the kettle on, invite some friends or family over, and let us come to you!

🔸️Learning at home with friends and family is a very relaxed way to learn first aid. Learning first aid doesn’t have to be scary. Home classes can be a lot of fun!

🔹️ If you’d like to know more, head to daisyfirstaid.com and pop in your postcode to find your lovely local trainer.

🔷️ Or email at laura@daisyfirstaid.com to book your home class.

🔷️ Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that happens when the body overreacts to an infection. It can develop quickly, which is why acting fast really matters.

🔸️As a parent, you know your child better than anyone. It’s so important to trust your instincts.

🔹️ If your child shows any early warning signs, seems more unwell than you would expect, or something just doesn’t feel right, seek urgent medical attention straight away.

🔶️Save this post so you can refer to it later. And please share this with your friends with little ones.

🔷️ Your child may be sleepy or confused for a while after a breath holding episode.

🔸️Although breath-holding can be scary for parents, it's usually harmless, and your child should grow out of it by the age of 4 or 5.



🔶️ Breath-holding episodes:



- usually last for less than 1 minute (if the child faints, they'll usually regain consciousness within 1 or 2 minutes)

- are not epileptic seizures

- Your child is not doing it on purpose and cannot control what happens when they have a breath-holding episode.



Call 999 if:

faints and can not be woken up

is shaking or jerking because of a fit

is blue or grey

These could be symptoms of breath-holding but could also be related to other, more serious conditions. If a doctor has not previously told you it's breath-holding, it's important to get it checked immediately.



🔷️ See a GP if:



- your child has already been diagnosed with breath-holding and:

- has breath-holding episodes more often than before, or the episodes seem worse

- is stiff or shakes for longer than a minute and takes a while to recover

- has breath-holding episodes that are affecting everyday life

- the GP will try to find out if there's a more serious underlying condition. They may suggest an ECG to check your child's heart rhythm.

Today we want to take a moment to recognise just how much commitment goes into pumping. Not just physically, but mentally too.



Pumping can be exhausting. The planning, the cleaning, the timing, the interrupted sleep, the sitting attached to a machine while life carries on around you. It can feel isolating, frustrating, and relentless at times. It is hard work, even on the days when it is going well.



But it is also an incredible act of love and determination. Showing up again and again, even when you are tired, touched out, or doubting yourself, takes real strength.



If you are pumping right now, whether that is full time, part time, exclusively, or occasionally, we see you. If you pumped for a week, a month or longer than you ever thought you would, that matters. And if you stopped because it was too much, that matters too.



However you feed your baby, you are doing an amazing job.



What else would you add to this list?

Let me introduce the wonderful Victoria—some of you may have already met her. She brings a wealth of knowledge and hands-on experience. Victoria will be taking parent first aid classes and children’s first aid sessions. Like myself, she is passionate about empowering people with practical, confidence-building skills.

"I am paediatric nurse and having mostly worked in paediatric A&E, I feel passionate about empowering parents and carers to feel confident about what to do in an emergency, as well as teaching the importance of accident prevention and early recognition of serious illnesses.

I am a Mum of 2 girls, I am an avid reader, and I am currently learning to play the piano with mixed success!"

🔷️ Choking is silent and happens very quickly. So it’s important to know what to do when it happens and to act fast.

🔸️ It’s also important to do whatever you can to prevent children from choking.

🔸️ Here are some of the top choking hazards for children under 5.

🔷️ Please remember:

- STAY with young children when they’re eating.

- Make sure children are STILL while they are eating. A child running around with food in their mouth is much more likely to choke.

✅️ SAVE this post so you can refer back to it and please share it with your friends with little people.

🔷️ Tonsillitis is an infection of the tonsils at the back of your throat. It is a common childhood illness, but teenagers and adults can get it too. Tonsillitis can feel like a bad cold or flu. The tonsils at the back of your throat will be red and swollen.

🔸️ The main symptoms are:

- a sore throat
- problems swallowing
- high temperature of 38C or above
- coughing
- headache
- feeling sick
- earache
- feeling tired

🔷️ Symptoms will usually go away after 3 to 4 days. Tonsillitis is not contagious, but most of the infections that cause it are, for example, colds and flu.

🔸️ You should keep your child at home until they feel better. To help treat the symptoms:

- ensure they get plenty of rest
- give cool drinks or ice lollies to soothe the throat
- give paracetamol or ibuprofen (following the guidance on the packaging)

🔸️See a GP or phone 111 if:

- you see white pus-filled spots on your child’s tonsils
- their eating and drinking are affected
- symptoms haven’t gone after 4 days
