In this episode I interview Jessica Tutton. Jess is a mum of three little boys and lives in Perth, Western Australia. Jess has so kindly shared her parenting journey with me. When Jess was 20 weeks pregnant with her first child she found out that he had a rare craniofacial syndrome called Goldenhar syndrome. He also had a cleft lip and cleft palate. Jess talks us through her experience from his birth, through navigating the neonatal intensive care unit, to taking him home and managing his ongoing feeding needs.

Jess is the owner of her own business whereby she helps entrepreneurs create and launch online courses. You can find Jess on Instagram @jessica_tutton or www.jessicatutton.com.au
