Clare's journey started when she became a parent and experienced postnatal depression. It was a lonely time but a seed was planted in how she could use her experience to support other parents going through similar things. Her work, both as a therapist working with children with early developmental trauma, and as a Co Director of an organisation working with families in the perinatal stages, also showed her the vital importance of the early years in helping children to develop healthily. Since then she has been passionate about helping parents to nurture the connection with their babies and children. Science shows that children’s brains are shaped by interactions with their environments. In the first few years of life, more than one million neural connections are formed every second. A child's brain is built upon the moment to moment experiences with their caregivers. The earlier a parent can start to connect with their baby, even antenatally, the greater the outcomes for the family. Clare's guided meditations here are designed to nourish the bond between parent and infant. Her hope is that they will also be a nourishing experience for the listener. A parent's wellbeing is also crucial for the wellbeing of the infant and child. They can be listened to both antenatally and postnatally. May these meditations be a gift to you and your growing family.
