Please can we be kind? Seeing so many harsh responses to people voicing the small worries. Sometimes the real fears are too hard to share. You don't have to engage, you don't even have to sympathise. Just don't shut them down when they're scared #BeKind

Growing up, my Muslim family never celebrated Christmas. This year I am not going home, because pandemic, so my roommates are teaching me how to have my first proper Christmas. I am approaching this with anthropological precision. Here are a few observations.

Concerning piece in @thetimes. @babyfriendly DOES support distributing baby milk in emergency in covid guidance. Prior guidance states ref to HV surestart or children's services if baby at risk not being fed to ensure safe practice. Nowhere does it say ignore needs.

Our Houses provide 400 bedrooms across the UK and it costs us £25 per night to keep a family close by their child’s bedside. Help us raise enough money to keep parents like William and Dinukshi close by their child’s hospital bed this Christmas 🎄 🎅 bit.ly/3eBVEew

Baby formula banned at food banks: I have encountered this many times before in crisis response and it is abhorrent. Local government planners, please please start talking about this....
New life is a bright light in dark times. Delighted to welcome baby Mia into the world, my first grandchild (granddaughter). Proud grandfather. Reminded of what matters most.

Hey @PaultonsPark any way you could make your “feeding rooms” a bit more feeding friendly? Or make exceptions for bf mums in your cafes with “breastfeeding welcome” stickers? Cold nipples are no joke :(

@RendallRittner We ask you not to issue the October service charge, which will put at risk many of our residents (furloughed/redundant/universal credit) Until you have recovered the promised £1.5m funds from @BarrattHomes Many of us won't be able to afford this. @piersmorgan

If you’ve suspected there are more women wearing masks than men, you’re correct: There is a gender divide in mask-wearing. vogue.cm/rpQ1939

Infant mental health awareness keeps us reflecting on what babies really need for their emotional, social and cognitive delelopement. Not so much about material resources. It's the need for humans who will be lovingly and emotionally available for them #IMHAW20 @iHealthVisiting

Babies like being with people. Babies’ optimal growth and development relies on their early experiences with people. Attending to your baby’s needs in the first three months especially, can help them feel secure in their relationships, as they know help is there if needed.

Gov says it won't be possible for all primary schools to reopen before Sept. Yet, it plans to continue reopening other sectors and sending people back to work. It's still unclear how people with caring responsibilities can go to work w/o FT childcare. wbg.org.uk/analysis/uk-polic…
