The Daycare Socialisation Myth: Cortisol, Peers, and Lost Shyness

The Daycare Socialisation Myth: Cortisol, Peers, and Lost Shyness6 aug6 min

<p>In this episode, we unpack the popular claim that daycare “better socialises” young children, through the lens of Dr Gordon Neufeld’s attachment-based model. Drawing on current research about cortisol, stress, and peer attachment, we explore what’s really happening in group care settings and why a child who stops crying at drop-off isn’t always a success story. You’ll walk away with practical strategies to protect your child’s attachment, even if daycare is part of your family’s reality.</p><p></p><p>Read the blog post:</p><p><a href="https://motheroohq.com/">⁠⁠⁠MotherooHQ.com⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p>Follow us:</p><p><a href="https://www.icloud.com/applications/notes3/current/en-gb/%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0%E2%81%A0https://instagram.com/motherooHQ">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠instagram.com/motherooHQ⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/motheroopodcast">⁠⁠⁠instagram.com/motheroopodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><a href="https://tiktok.com/@motherooHQ">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠tiktok.com/@motherooHQ⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><a href="http://x.com/MotherooHQcom">x.com/MotherooHQcom</a></p><p><a href="https://facebook.com/motherooHQ">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠facebook.com/motherooHQ⁠</a></p><p></p><p><br></p>
