The Parenting Tools Podcast

The Beginnings of a Sinister Child

Season 1, Ep. 2

The podcast where two dads - the 'parenting tools' - navigate the relentless beauty and hilarious chaos of parenting.


This week we discuss the horror of missing ‘the sleep window’ and Jason shares his daughter’s sly methods of avoiding nap time.


We also talk about the challenge of only seeing your child after work in the evening when they’re in a gremlin-like state, while Jordan shares his theory behind the emotional rollercoaster of an early morning.
