Daycare, Early Learning & the Awe of Babyhood — with Dan Wuori
What if babies are some of the best teachers we’ll ever have?
In this uplifting episode, Katie is joined by Dan Wuori — senior advisor at the Hunt Institute, early learning expert, and one of the internet’s favourite voices on baby development — to explore how young children experience the world, what great early learning really looks like, and the quiet lessons babies offer if we know how to notice.
They talk about:
🧠 What makes quality daycare actually quality
🪁 Why early learning is built through play, not pressure
🌟 How babies invite us to slow down and rediscover awe
Whether you’re a parent thinking about childcare options, or just wondering how to support your baby’s learning without all the noise, this conversation will leave you feeling informed, grounded, and reminded of the magic in the everyday.
