Hey Doc,
In this bonus episode of Stethoscopes and Strollers, Dr. Alexandra Stockwell returns to talk about one of the most vulnerable and underdiscussed parts of motherhood for physicians: inviting someone else into your home to care for your child.
She shares:
- What it was like to welcome a 17-year-old “au pair before its time” into their small apartment
- How she mentored both of her early nannies with warmth, patience, and real expectations
- Why daily appreciation not just correction is a non-negotiable part of how she led at home
- And how those early childcare setups shaped her values around trust, communication, and shared growth
If you’ve ever felt guilty about needing help at home or questioned whether your childcare setup was “good enough”, this conversation will meet you right where you are.
