Jumping on the trend of #reintroducingmyself before we jump head first into 2026!

It’s a crazy life juggling motherhood, being an NHS midwife, dog mum and dance mum (this really takes up A LOT of time that only a fellow dance mum would get) but I wouldn’t have it any other way, and whilst you might think I’m crazy for also running my own online business, this part of my life has actually given me more freedom.

What does a day in your life look like? Comment below 👇

Happy Saturday Insta world. Thought I’d share a little bit about me before leaving for another shift at work. Although in reality I’m still in bed researching our next family trip away at the end of this month! Will share as soon as it’s booked but still so undecided of where to go with all the possibilities popping up on my feed, enticing me in 🤣 #mumtraveller #midwifetraveller #midwifelife #fypreelsinstagram #foryourpage #mumof4 #makingmemories #flexibleworking #independenttravelagentuk #familyislove #dancemumlife #allaboutme #allaboutadventures #saturdayfun #sidehustlesuccess #weekendvibes #staycationuk taken in Solihull by @jo_haden

We love our holidays abroad and exploring the world, but there is also something truly magical about staying in the UK and discovering new places.

✨ MUSEUM OF ILLUSIONS - MALTA ✨

Looking for something to entertain the children out of the current windy and rainy spells in Malta this Easter?
The Museum of Illusions in St Julian’s is fabulous and the children absolutely loved it.
At €60 for a family of 6, it is also well worth the money - book in advance online using the discount code ONLINE15 too 🥳
Despite being on the most beautiful island, this has been the children’s favourite activity.

Well this made me chuckle! Create your own AI Christmas portrait with #ChatGPT.

Post a selfie or photo of yourself and the following wording into ChatGPT and see what you look like 😂

Create an ultra-realistic 8K Christmas portrait using a 55mm lens with bright, playful holiday lighting. The woman is in a whimsical candy-cane themed photoshoot, surrounded by pink giant peppermint decorations, snowy ground, festive trees, and oversized ornaments.
Use her real facial features exactly as they are — do NOT change or alter her face in any way. Her makeup is festive glam — winged liner, warm eyeshadow, rosy cheeks, and a bold holiday soft pink lips.
She wears a sparkly white long-sleeve pants jumpsuit , fitted and shimmering with sequins. The back of the jumpsuit has a scoop-back cut, adding keeping the holiday sparkle. She is sitting on a white cube block, posing with one leg lifted and crossed, similar to the reference image. Her expression is playful and confident, smiling warmly toward the camera.
In her hand, she holds a giant pink-and-white peppermint lollipop prop, resting it over her shoulder in a fun, candy-land pose. Around her is a fully decorated Christmas set:
• Snowy ground with fluffy artificial snow
• Christmas trees dusted with frost, decorated with pink ornaments and string lights
• Oversized and canes framing whimsical beside her
• A large shiny red Christmas ornament near her feet
Lighting should be bright, clean, and festive, capturing the glimmer of the sequins and the pink candy-themed props. The colors are vibrant reds, whites, and silvers, giving a magical North Pole holiday studio vibe.

Now one of our favourite Christmas traditions! Instead of sending cards, this is now our 4th year of the children helping to prepare a food parcel to deliver to Santa on his travels in Shirley for his elves from @shirleyroundtable to pass on to @community_essentials_food_bank

A massive thank you to all the elves and Santa this evening for recognising us and making it such a special occasion again for the children 🎅 🎄 xx taken in Shirley by @jo_haden

Tell me you have a Gen Alpha child, without telling me you have a Gen Alpha child!!

Me: Bella, which sweets would you like?
Bella: These please, because they’re “trending”

And yes, Bella also had to tell me she was Gen Aplha and I had to google what it was 😆 #ParentingIn2025 #peelinggummies #genalpha #fyp taken in Birmingham, United Kingdom by @jo_haden
