Weekend: Real-Life Blind Parenting Tips from Garth and Jordi

Blind parenting comes with unique challenges, but it’s also full of creative solutions and joyful moments. Garth and Jordi share practical tips on caring for their newborn, Ella, as blind parents—covering prams, baby carriers, feeding, and navigating public perceptions.

Shaun Preece welcomes Garth and Jordi to talk candidly about life as blind parents to baby Ella. Inspired by a Lucy Edwards video exploring prams and strollers for visually impaired parents, the conversation dives into real-world parenting strategies.

The Humphries discuss why they favour baby carriers over prams, how guide dogs fit into daily routines, and the practicalities of feeding, nappies, and baby-proofing. They highlight both the anxieties and the rewards of parenting without sight, sharing stories about sleepless nights, midwife advice, and managing other people’s expectations.

Their tips—like using talking kitchen scales, safe baby carriers, and creative home adaptations—show that blind parenting is entirely possible with preparation, confidence, and a sense of humour.
