Merry Christmas Mum Clubbers! This week in Mum Club 101 we gear up for the holidays and catch up on recent festivities.

In ‘critique of the week’ we discuss "What is the right way to split domestic chores with a partner?" Research by starling bank shows that typical couple will do 63 hours of unpaid household chores each week, but only 29% of couples share these tasks equally.

When it comes to Christmas, the tasks – the hosting, present-buying and cooking – all amp up. They asked 14 couples to share exactly how they split the domestic load. The percentages, and how each couple feels about them, are incredibly revealing.

In ‘nonsense time’ segment we giggle at Christmas Party Stories - Part 2.

We would love to hear from you!

This week in Mum Club 101, we chat to Kerry Secker, infant sleep consultant and founder of Care It Out sleep consultancy service.

As a mum to toddler herself, she’s on a mission to support tired parents to get more sleep without having to use sleep training methods and her approach is honest and reassuring.

Before founding Care It Out Kerry was an international nanny and has over 25 years of experience behind her, so we took this opportunity to put some of our most asked listener questions to her and pick her brains about some of the most challenging phases of toddlerhood.
