Temporarily Homeschooling my Son, Oliver, 9

November 25, 2019

Our homeschooling journey so far.

About me

Hi! I’m Vicki, mum to Oliver, 12, Xander, 9, and baby Florence who was born in November 2021. I’m also a multi award-winning lifestyle blogger, broadcaster and author.

I wrote the bestselling book Mumboss-The Honest Mum’s Guide To Surviving and Thriving at Work and at Home (UK) in 2018 and the US and Canadian version titled The Working Mom was released in 2021.

If you would like to work with me, please email me at mum@honestmum.com. You can read more about me here. .

⚡️Felt a bit like a grown-up Little Red Riding

⚡️Felt a bit like a grown-up Little Red Riding Hood -with edge-on Saturday thanks to these @irisfashion silver boots. Super soft, super comfy and super cool. Thank you @irisfashion 🫶♥️ (gift). Do you like them? Also loving that I’ve started to rediscover my identity in so many ways post-baby whether that’s through fashion, my work as a writer and campaigner and accepting my ever-changing body. It’s a process. Now that Florence is 1 I’ve started to become more playful with my style and wear more colour. I’m not waiting to reach my pre-baby weight before wearing what I like. Mamas, go gently with yourselves and wear the red dress and silver boots!!! #style #postpartumbody #postpartum #motherhood #bodypositivity #mumofthree #over40style #over40

1 year old with the longest hair in the world?! 😜. Florence was born with a full head of thick hair and she hasn’t lost any. It’s just grown and grown and when damp, is down her back! It’s curly so bounces up once dry. It’s gorgeous but high maintenance! Did your babies have lots of hair too? I did as a baby so she’s taken after me! #toddlerlife #longhair #babygirl #toddler #mumsuk #hairstyles #kidshair #kidshairstyles #kidshairstyle #fyp #tiktok #tiktoks #fyp #viral #explorepage #explore #exploremore #facebookreels

❄️ We’re full of festive cheer now that we’re back from a Sunday fun day at the Ice Cube at Christmas fair in Leeds city centre ❄️. Have you visited a Christmas market/ funfair yet? Highly recommend. Also a little tip for creators out there: I quickly grabbed these clips during the last half an hour we spent at the fair so I could be fully present and enjoy myself for the first hour and an half. I edited the video on the car journey home. I love making video content (I used to be a TV director and filmmaker) but I don’t want to miss out on living life through my own eyes 👀 either! Let me know if this helps you!🎄⛄️🎅 #christmas #michaelbuble #fyp #viral #Leeds #tiktok #trending #christmasmarket #festive #babiesofinstagram #wholesome #christmastree #explore #explorepage #exploremore #sunday #sundayfunday #marshmallows #parenting #viralreels #familytime #qualitytime

Throwback video to a toothless 9 month old Florence enjoying her food thanks to baby led weaning. She cut 6 teeth simultaneously at 10 months old and now at 1, is an adventurous eater! Did you follow baby led weaning too? #9months #throwback #babygirl #weaning #babyledweaning #parenting #motherhood #teething #babygirl #babiesofinstagram #explorepage #exploremore #fyp #tiktok #viralvideos #facebook #foryou #food #babyadvice

🎁#Competition time 🎁 To celebrate #smallbusinesssaturday I’m shining a light on my talented friend @emma.white.jewellery, founder of the exquisite @the.jewellery.makers. To #win this stunning gold hand in heart necklace worth £135 (swipe 👈👉) simply enter below 👇. 💜💜A beautiful symbol of protection and love, the solid rose gold heart is suspended in the palm of a solid silver hand. The hand was originally inspired by the traditional Middle Eastern symbol of Fatima’s hand: a symbol of guidance and protection.
As seen on BBC2s All That Glitters where Emma was runner-up (but absolutely should have won)! The one I’m wearing was a kind birthday present from Emma. It’s a grounding necklace; I love touching the hand to remind me that I’m safe, protected and loved. It’s a mindful, beautiful gift for yourself or someone you care about. Good luck 🤞!

Forgot to share this a few months ago! Florence tries and unsurprisingly loves cheesecake at my folks’ brilliant Italian restaurant @giorgiositalianleeds in Headingley, Leeds. Florence has recently developed a dairy allergy (hence the recent hospital visit) so I’ll be making dairy-free cheesecake for her from now on. Leave any recipes or ideas for alternatives in the comments please. #toddlermeals #babymeals #baby #babygirl #cute #cheesecake #dairyfree #fyp #explorepage #exploremore #foryou #reels #viralreels #viral #weaning #babyandtoddler #babystyle #reelsinstagram #babiesofinstagram #facebook #babiesoftheday #toddlerlife #toddlermom #toddlermeals #cute #exploreeverything

I love watching these videos so thought I’d make a few. One I posted a few months ago is going viral on Facebook so thought I’d share last night’s dinner here. It’s going viral on Facebook so thought I’d share here too. I find videos usually take a month or two to go viral on FB with some reaching millions of views. I call it the Florence Effect ♥️. I’d def recommend uploading content you share here natively on FB too. This was a super quick meal Miss Florence gobbled up. I’ll share more soon! Any toddler meal inspo is always appreciated. Florence enjoyed chickpea curry last night 🍲 #toddler #toddlerlife #toddlermeals #toddlermealideas #food #weaning #toddlerfood #reels #viral #viralreels #explorepage #explore #fyp #foryou #babygirl #oneyearold #babiesofinstagram #viral #facebook #facebookvideo #toddlersofinstagram #toddlersnacks
