About This Podcast

The Other Mothers Podcast, produced by Teddy's Wish, is hosted by friends Elle, Caro and Jen who speak candidly about their experiences of baby loss and invite guests to share their stories too. About the hosts: Caro Tasker runs The Spikey, a neurodivergent space/community as an autistic ally and educator. An ardent ambassador for neonatal research in memory of her son Freddie, the funds raised so far have made one of the biggest impacts on preterm labour in almost 60 years. Caro can be found on instagram as @spikey. Elle Wright is a blogger and The Sunday Times Bestselling author of Ask Me His Name and A Bump In the Road. Writing about the loss of her son, Teddy, who died at 3 days old in 2016, Elle has been instrumental in opening up the conversation around pregnancy and child loss to the media. You can find her writing at featheringtheemptynest.co.uk or as @feathering_the_empty_nest on Instagram where she shares life, loss, laughs and much more. Jen Reid is the Co-Founder and CEO of Teddy's Wish, a charity that funds research into the causes of baby loss and provides bereavement support for grieving families. The charity was set up by Jen and her husband Chris in July 2014 to honour the memory of their baby boy Eddie who they lost to SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) when he was only three months old. Jen can be found on instagram as teddys_wish If you are a bereaved parent and would like support or if you have any other questions please contact us at [email protected] For more information please visit www.teddyswish.org
