Navigating the Journey
Posted on: Friday January 10th, 2014
Posted by: Denise Kelly
I have lived and continue to live, an incredible life for which I am truly grateful and one of my greatest gifts is my two kids. They are 21 and 19 now and away at university. They have given me the opportunity to explore motherhood, (for which I am no expert) but they have always… [read more]
Safety First: What does safe sleep look like?
Posted on: Monday December 16th, 2013
Posted by: Victoria Sopik
Sleep seems to be one of the most important concerns for new parents. With my eight children, I found that they were all different and their sleep patterns were very similar to their personalities. The temperamental ones had difficulty sleeping and are still a little difficult to deal with! If you watch your baby closely… [read more]
Getting your little ones to sleep…easier said than done!

Posted by: Victoria Sopik
As I read the excerpt below from our experts at Wholeplay, I can verify from personal experience that every child has their own unique sleeping habits and interest in sleep. Some children are naturally good sleepers while others often feel like they might miss out on something hence they only allow their body to have… [read more]
Prenatal Exercises
Posted on: Thursday October 10th, 2013
Posted by: Victoria Sopik
The concept of prenatal exercise has changed significantly over the last 28 years. In the past, it was rarely discussed and usually associated with “going for a walk” or “going to a step class”. I remember seeing some of my pregnant friends continue running into their final months of pregnancy! Sadly, this was not the… [read more]
Milestones and Learning Styles: Every Child is Different and Things Have Changed Over the Last 30 Years!
Posted on: Friday September 20th, 2013
Posted by: Victoria Sopik
Watching your child grow and develop new skills is one of the exciting activities that come along with being a parent. It was always a party in our house when the newest member to the family took their first steps or spoke their first words! But even though we were focused on celebrating our child’s… [read more]
Learning Through Play!
Posted on: Monday September 9th, 2013
Posted by: Victoria Sopik
I have eight children. As you can imagine, working at building a business to care for children while raising my own family was a big job. I believe that having my own children helped me in creating the kind of place that I would want me children to be while I was working. When we… [read more]
Water Safety: Having Fun and Staying Safe with Your Children!
Posted on: Thursday August 22nd, 2013
Posted by: Victoria Sopik
I have been lucky enough to spend some time this summer by the lake at my cottage. Being by the water on a hot summer’s day is a great way to spend quality time with your family! As you can imagine, for many years we had 8 (or more!) young children running around our… [read more]
To Swaddle or Not to Swaddle
Posted on: Thursday June 6th, 2013
Posted by: Victoria Sopik
There are so many questions that arise when you’re preparing for a new baby! Is it better to bottle or breast feed? Is it better to use a crib or cradle? Pacifier or no pacifier? There are so many questions, so many experts and so many “answers” it’s hard to keep track of them all!… [read more]
The Benefits of Socialization: Child Care and Playgroups
Posted on: Thursday May 30th, 2013
Posted by: Victoria Sopik
One of the most important issues that parents consider after the birth of their baby is whether to go back to work and if they choose to do so, how should they prepare their family for this. Does one parent stay home? Do they hire a nanny? Do they send the baby to a child… [read more]
Homework: The fine line between helping them and doing it for them
Posted on: Thursday April 25th, 2013
Posted by: Victoria Sopik
As children progress through school, homework starts to pour in. Some children are able to finish their homework at their after-school programs while others have a hard time focusing after a long day of concentrating at school. By the time homework makes it home, many of us are tempted to over-help our children in order… [read more]
