It's a brand with a mission…designed help busy families build adventure and create stronger, happier kids, and more present and connected adults." This week we talk with My Gnome on the Roam's creator, Anne Armstrong, about how she developed this idea and how you can use My Gnome on the Roam in your nanny day!

The Power of Story

The Power of Story

This week I was delighted to be joined by two fabulous guests to discuss the power of story! Mister John is an author, librarian, and genealogist. Nanny Miss Monique curates children's books with diversity and wonderful stories. We sat down to talk about what a powerful tool storytelling can be when working with kids and offer some library tips as well! We recorded during a snowstorm and so the sound is a little off but the episode was too great not to post! Check it out and thanks for listening!
