00:22bad it's become a bit of a struggle at the minute since we've recently moved um we found it a
00:28lot
00:29harder at the moment like financially and stuff but she tends to entertain me to keep me happy so
00:36is that your daughter yeah she's very sweet very noisy I'm surprised she's sitting quietly at the

01:25outside have you made a snowman yet no not yet no mommy's too cold how's Little Village helped you
01:32has it been with practical things so basically when when I became um a single parent um I didn't know
01:40what I was going to do where I was going to go I was thinking like it's my first child
01:46I'm so scared
01:48um I did feel like on my own a lot and then so basically my midwife said to me oh
01:56we know of a
01:57charity that can help you out like with clothes and things like that so I was like okay who's that
02:03I said I've never heard of them before and then she was like yeah they've been going for a while
02:08so when she put me in contact with them and I was feeling really nervous about going thinking what
02:13are people going to think about me are they going to judge me because I'm a single parent
02:19but once I got in there literally the minute I walked in it was like a huge family unit it
02:25was
02:26absolutely amazing and you didn't feel judged the second you walked in you did not feel judged at all
02:32you look around and you think like we're all in this same situation but different circumstances
02:39yeah I adore them they're absolutely I don't I don't know where I'd be without them
