Repair is what happens after a difficult moment. It’s how we come back, reconnect, and show our children that relationships are safe, even when things go wrong.

Repair can sound like:
• “I’m sorry I shouted earlier. I was feeling overwhelmed.”
• “That must have felt scary/sad for you.”
• “I’m here now.”

Through repair, children learn:
- Relationships can be mended
- Big feelings are safe
- Mistakes don’t break connection
- They are still loved, no matter what

Sleep Hygiene tip #3 😴
Did you know certain foods can make bedtime harder for kids? Try to avoid chocolate, soft drinks, iced tea, lollies, fruit juice, spicy meals, and greasy takeaways before bed — they can make it tricky for little bodies to settle down.
If they’re hungry, offer a light bedtime snack like warm milk, a banana, yoghurt or wholegrain toast instead. 🌙✨
Better sleep starts with better choices! 💤💛
