130. The Role Of The Grandparent With A/Prof Michelle Jongenelis

35 min • 2 december 2024

In this episode of The Kick, Brigid chats with A/Prof Michelle Jongenelis, a Clinical Psychologist from University of Melbourne's Centre for Behaviour Change about her pioneering research on the increasing reliance on grandparents as primary caregivers in Australia, with around 20% of children being regularly looked after by their grandparents. We discuss the significant implications this has on children's nutrition, physical activity, and overall wellbeing.
