Welcome back to Ready or Not, the show where Loz and Lu try to figure out how to make work, work alongside motherhood.

Today on the show:

Why your newborn might be “sleeping better” than your toddler – Loz is in the trenches with sleep at the moment and no, it’s not from her 9 month old, it’s from her toddler who’s 3.
Nine things that genuinely make parenting better, from a parent educator and mum of four. Gen Muir recently shared the best tips and I want to unpack it with you and get your insights along the way.
