Sophie David started Little Happy Learners in 2019 and still feels in the early days of her business; it’s taken her 5 years to get clear on her vision for her business. 6 months ago Sophie set herself a deadline - go all in for a year, and if it doesn’t work, go back to teaching. In that 6 months, she has seen her Instagram following grow by over 300%. Overnight growth is never overnight. Sophie shares lots of insight into her business, her purpose and some really valuable and practical tidbits if you’re going through a tricky patch with your kids (anyone else got a 3yr old they can’t cope with?!) Most of all, whatever our choices, we need to find a way that makes it work for us.

But the work paid off and we discussed what has led to her huge growth in the last 6 months.  Why 15 mins of connection with your child can make such a difference to a day Social media v’s reality, and ‘how you do it all’ How important Sophie’s purpose is to her, her vision for her business and the guiding principle that it has become Advice for early years specialists who are finding employment isn’t a great fit for parenthood Links: Website: www.bumptobusinessowner.com  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bumptobusinessowner/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolinepooley/ About Sophie David: Little Happy Learners launched in 2019 in a small house just outside London.
