MUM LEARNS 

Hi, I'm Eliza, one of the contributors here at  Mum Learns. I am a mom who is trying to understand the complexities of parenting. As an experienced early years teacher, I thought I had the tools and knowledge needed to be a successful parent. However, I quickly realised that parenting my adopted child was an entirely different ball game. I found myself struggling to parent effectively without understanding how trauma can impact a child's behaviour. My journey of researching, attending courses, and therapy has been eye-opening and has helped me become a more empathetic and patient parent. I'm definitely still learning and have a long way to go but I hope this site helps you to find answers to your child's behaviour faster than I did!
