One of the sponsors on this week's episode is Kumon, the UK and Ireland's largest supplementary education provider and we are delighted to be working with them again.

We are regular listeners to the podcast, we have heard us speak about Kumon before and there's actually a free trial from the first of October to the 15th of November where families new to Kumon can try out maths and English study programmes for seven days with no obligation to sign up.

Yet this is incredible, Kumon is for children of all ages and abilities, whether your child would benefit from being academically stretched and challenged more than school curriculum allows, then Kumon is for you.

Also, if your child needs to build up the foundations necessary to improve their confidence and ability in maths or English and their grades, Kumon is probably for you as well.

Exactly, Kumon is really one to help them build the self-confidence and mindset they need to succeed. Plus, with Kumon Connect, children can now study and complete work sheets digitally on their tablet.

This means they're even more accessible and convenient, plus it makes feedback easier to you.

Yeah, that sounds like the Georgia seal of approval to me. Visit Kumon.co.uk forwardstashtrial or Kumon.i.e forwardstashtrial to book your seven day free trial today.

Hello and welcome to Made by Mum is the podcast. I'm Zoe and I'm Georgia.

And we're here talking all things parenthood, you know, the real conversations, tips and tricks, products we love and brands we can't live without.

Let's get into it.

Oh my god, can we just start off by saying, I am so excited about today's podcast.

Generally, since we recorded it, I've been like telling everybody that we've had this man on the phone on the phone.

Have you done the same?

Oh my god, yes, and I keep cringing.

Anyone that listens, please message us and see what, like, try and guess what I'm cringing at.

It's in the first, probably, two minutes of the podcast.

I cannot believe that you said this to him. I can't believe it, but it was so, it was gold.

It was absolute gold, and it was what I wanted to say, but I thought, you know what?

I thought it would go down that well, and then go and just come straight out for it.

It's going to be a good chat. We'll tell you who it is in a minute.

But firstly, Georgia, how are you? How was your weekend?

I'm all right. I had quite a good weekend.
