"I believe a mother is a mother. A mother is a mother to a child who is no longer here. You’re a mother if you’re a step-mum. You’re a mother if you chose to be a mother to a child who needed one. Families don’t always have to be the traditional way; they can be how you make them."

"We thought, what can we use in our lived experience? Thinking back to childhood times, and what that means for our kids and our family – we try to stay together as a community."

"My parents told us lots of stories. We saw them reading and we read together. We were in a household of reading, and it was a kind of parenting by example."

"Oral health is the gateway to the rest of the body. It allows us to eat, speak, smile, feel confident – and that’s true with kids too."
