How Honey House started
About us
I always wanted to make a difference
Ever since I studied politics at university and got my first job working for an MP in Parliament, I knew I wanted to make a positive impact in the world.
I always wanted to be a mum too. I was a lonely, only child whose parents divorced as a teenager. A family of my own was always my dream. The chaos, the drawings on the fridge, the company. I’ve longed for it every day since I was 4.
But from the day I found out I was pregnant with my daughter (after 12 long months of trying), my journey wasn’t what I expected – underscored by a failing NHS Maternity System, zero postpartum support and unachievable societal standards.
What has followed has been a deep dive into how to make parenthood & familyhood BETTER. For my family, yes but for other families nationwide too.
We’re not here to patch up a broken system. We’re building a new blueprint for parenthood – one family at a time.
Daisy Hill, Honey House Founder
“Evidence consistently shows maternal wellbeing is directly linked to better child outcomes; positive change is desperately needed.”
Our approach is a product of our Parent Wellbeing work with the University of Brighton, our anthropological research into childrearing from the past and our on the ground experience with our Honey House parents.
Underpinned by thousand-year-old family-centric cultural practices and informed by modern authors like Hunt, Gather, Doucleff, Payne and Druckerman – we’ve found an ancient-inspired solution for today’s parenting challenges.
We’re helping parents feel calmer and more confident in their parenting.
Why work with us?
