Front Row Dads with Jon Vroman A Dad's Impact on Early Childhood Development with Celeste Meyburgh
Celesté Meyburgh spent the last couple of years researching and studying the important role that fathers play in early child development and school readiness.
She believes Dads should know what the science says about their unique impact and she has made it her mission to share the fascinating research about Dads far and wide.
Celesté Meyburgh along with her (awesome!) husband, Kobus Meyburgh, are co-founders of Spritely.
During office hours, she is a Registered Psychometrist and Counsellor. After hours, she plays house (and LEGO and dinosaurs) with her two-year-old girl, Famke, and five-year-old boy, Milan.
During the early morning hours, she is plotting world peace, with her ever-growing army of actively involved Dads.
She aims to inspire Dads with insight to become Dads of impact all over the world. Because our children deserve to grow up with the best version of their Dads so they can become the best version of themselves for the generations to come.
In today's episode of the podcast, we're talking with Celesté about her passion for helping men understand their impact at a child's early age.
