💚 WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY | SATURDAY 10TH OCTOBER 2026 💚
This year’s theme for World Mental Health Day is ✨ lived experiences heard, real voices, real change ✨
EVERY parent has a story that needs to be heard and it’s always good to share with others going through what you’re going through as you are going through it. When parents share stories, we learn how others do life as parents and get ideas of changes we could try for our families to make life easier.
So this sharing of our experiences can be tough as let’s be honest, change is tough.
But…
That’s what we do at every class and baby group! The more we meet other parents, the easier it becomes.
Today is a reminder that listening without judgement, showing compassion and creating safe spaces can make a real difference.
Thank you to everyone who makes our Calm and Connected classes what they are. Today I’m celebrating each and every one of you. Let’s celebrate the courage it takes to walk into a baby group, perhaps knowing no one, worried about what we’ll do if our baby cries but taking the risk anyway in the hope that our shared experiences will matter.
💚 Every voice matters.
💚 Every story matters.
💚 Every person matters.
