Meet our Partnerships Manager, Emily Chu, a busy m

Meet our Partnerships Manager, Emily Chu, a busy mom of two adorable girls aged 9 months and 2 years. She recently sampled meals from babydine_hk and gave it a rave review! 🥘⁠
⁠
Juggling her work and family life, Emily found it challenging to prepare homemade meals for her daughters every day, especially catering to their different dietary needs. She found a perfect solution in Baby Dine.⁠
⁠
She was impressed by its quick and easy preparation, and its variety of fresh and nutritious meals. Even her picky toddler found a new favorite! Baby Dine not only added a welcome variety to their meals but also introduced her toddler to new food options she wouldn’t have thought of preparing herself.⁠

Tiger Mum, helicoptering, attachment parenting…

Tiger Mum, helicoptering, attachment parenting… everyone knows about these parenting styles! But have you heard about this Sassy Mama’s drone parenting style? 🚁

“My first phase of parenting was terrestrial and inelegant (but which newly minted mother cared about appearances?). I was a bulldozer, ploughing down any real or imagined obstacle that stood in my children’s way. Noisy neighbour disturbing my child’s nap? She’ll have me on her doorstep in no time. School admissions officer rejected my son? I want a second assessment. The must-have sleep swaddle made from 200% organic cotton and sewn together with bamboo silk is out of stock? I’ll call the company’s headquarters.

I will withhold judgement on whether this parenting style was right or wrong. I will say though that it is an understandable mode for when the children are young and seemingly vulnerable. As they get older, want more independence, and need to learn agency, I suggest creating some distance. Or, as I did, go overhead.” 🚜
