The great pause: can conscious parenting help reclaim the calm?

New episode of the This Little Life podcast now available

Hosted by Elke Pascoe, Founder and CEO, The LittleOak Company, This Little Life is an impromptu and lively discussion diving into the big and little issues of parenting and beyond.

We’ve all had those days. Neither you or the baby has slept much, the kids are crying, and now you’re yelling. But what if there was a different way of handling the situation? A calmer way? Our guest today Sammy Millach thinks there is.

Sammy is a mum of two, teacher and behaviour management specialist. She’s also an expert in conscious parenting, which focuses on clear and positive communication and boundaries. Rather than yelling “time-out”, she advocates for time-ins. Sound appealing? This this episode is for you.

LittleOak formula promises it’s quality and my twins have loved it. It has been so easy for their stomach, especially for one of my colicky babies. Thank you for a great quality product.

When we transitioned to formula we were worried as our little bub struggled on formula, all anxiety is gone, he happily takes the bottle with no upset tummy and nothing but smiles.

Top notch product for baby backed by a company with excellent customer service. At 7 months old now my baby boy is very satisfied after a bottle of LittleOak. Thank you.

LittleOak has been a lifesaver for our family, massively reduced our baby’s stomach issues and helped him sleep through the night. Highly recommend for parents seeking a gentle formula.

William has now been on LittleOak for 3 months and we have found it very gentle on his stomach, particularly with the transition. Also found it doesn’t smell yucky like other formulas.

Frequently asked questions

A. It is important to transition slowly from breastfeeding to LittleOak or from a different brand of formula to LittleOak. Changing food source too quickly can cause your baby discomfort to their immature digestive system. Our qualified team are here to help, support and guide you around the best transition plan that suits you and your little one. Download the LittleOak transition guide below.

A. We are the first infant formula in the world to be certified 100% Palm Oil Free by POFCAP. Palm oil inhibits the absorption of calcium, fats and DHA in babies so for us there was no question that we needed to use alternative, higher quality oils to provide the fatty acid profile in our products. Instead of palm oil, we use cold-pressed coconut oil and blend this with cold-pressed flaxseed oil and sunflower oil.
