Teachers & Toddlers

Primary Teacher & mother of a busy 2 year old, striving to achieve the elusive work life balance. Is it possible to have it all?

Happy half term to everyone! #noalarm #notimetable #familytime

It is not human to want to kill children. Thoughts, prayers & love to those affected by the attack in #Manchester last night #StandTogether

I also learnt that my toddler is able to refuse to sleep for AGES now 😭, however she can do most things on the 27mth/30mth checklist. #proud

Yet I was unable to keep my cool when a #maybug flew towards my face on a mini beast hunt with Y1 😱. #fail #ran #Imayhavetroddenonachild

Thoughts with those whose careers hang on whether a bunch of 11-year-olds slept well last night.

Interesting thread to read...I work 4 days and have SUCH a better work life balance despite the loss in income.

Off the back of prev tweet, the holidays from school are great when you have ch, but what you miss out on with them in term time isn't. 😔

I definitely lost myself after having my baby. Lost confidence in myself as a professional & 2 yrs on have managed some kind of balance. https://t.co/jO4JOvy3KZ

I sit there thinking "that's me"
I hadn't spoken French since I was 16. Now I teach it across the school and my children love it #mfl #ppa

[Teachers & Toddlers @Teach_toddle]

Off to an MFL trust meeting where french speakers have historically&openly wondered why MFL or lang teaching is given to non french speakers
