Thanks for watching!

We’re Jamie and Bev from Small Acorn

We’re on a mission to change the way our society approaches pregnancy, birth, babies and parenting – one small acorn at a time. We’ve been writing a new fact every Friday for over 120 weeks on our blog at www.smallacorn.co.uk/blog and started sharing video versions on week 100.

If you’re interested in meeting us in person, supporting our work or attending any of our events or courses then drop us a line anywhere on social media or check out www.smallacorn.co.uk – we’d love for you to get in touch.
