👶🍼Roots of Empathy👶🍼

28th Jan 2025

It’s been 6 weeks since we last saw Baby Déarbhla and mummy Fiona.....and wow, what huge changes we've been able to observe this time. Déarbhla is now following our voices, looking around at her surroundings, nearly sitting up and rolling over on her own, but she can’t roll back yet.

We also had a special visitor to observe our family visit this month. The Roots of Empathy mentor, wanted to see for herself the fantastic boys and girls from P5/6.

She could see how much they all loved baby Déarbhla as we chatted about different feelings and emotions, how we show each other how we're feeling and how feelings are contagious.

We asked Fiona how Déarbhla shows her how she is feeling and what she does to soothe her. The children learned that it's important to share their feelings so others know how to help if we're having a tough day.

Huge thanks again to Maeve, Belinda and of course Fiona and baby Déarbhla. P5/6 can’t wait to continue on our Roots Of Empathy journey. 💕
