“Ask Us Anything” Q&A on Made by Mamas (Zoe Hardman and Georgia Dayton), including spending, parenting skills, relationships, motherhood surprises, and a “who would you trust to babysit more” game.
No guest celebrities in this episode—just hosts Zoe Hardman and Georgia Dayton (both parenting with five kids between them). Producer Mark is briefly mentioned.
Zoe says she’s best at emotional regulation and giving each child daily time; Georgia says she’s good at calm and bedtime one-on-one time. They discuss motherhood having “no privacy,” and that kids overhear everything (including school chats and adult conversations). They argue unlimited holidays would beat unlimited childcare.
Georgia’s son’s “free willy era”; Zoe’s child melt with consequences and later apology; plane/discipline “empty threats” they now regret; kids overhearing house-renovation figures and repeating them. Babysitting: they predict Zoe would be more fun/active and Georgia would be “looser,” with a likely “massive Ocado bill.”

Hello and welcome to Friday's episode of the podcast. A little treat for you today because it's just myself and George. Yeah, we're going to do an Ask Us Anything, which actually always scares me because sometimes you're not really nosy. Also, I do think back to these episodes a while ago where George absolutely hated talking about, like, her deepest, darkest secrets.
2:49And over the years, I've managed to pull them out like a rusty nail. Yeah, now there's, like, nothing off the table. Sexy Sundays. We've had it all. It's all there. George, do you want to kick us off? Let's kick us off. Oh, I like this because this is, like, following a bit of a social media trend. What's something you spend more money on than most people because you genuinely think it's worth it? Skincare. skincare um I have no qualms about spending 80 quid on a moisturizer if I think like like the Medicaid yeah um that what's that overnight ones like 68 or 72 quid yeah I think that's right but it probably lasts me for four months and I really see results with it yeah profilo you know things like that yes same I'm ashamed to admit it because it is a bit ridiculous but and obviously Paula looks after me she gives me my my botox for free but i you know there's certain things that i kind of think actually that's worth it yeah i'm happy um food i have no like i have no like qualms with like a really expensive steak or like spending a lot more money on like things like that no please please be honest about the money that you spend on tin tomatoes yeah the internet went wild when Georgia admitted how much you spent on it.
4:10It was like£3.80 on a tin. It's fucking ridiculous. I'm sorry, you cannot taste the difference.
4:18Actually, do you know what? On my Ocado shop this week, I have gone... Tins, tomatoes, you loser. I was really put off when... I can't remember what his name is. What was his name? The guy who goes into your house and tells you you're spending too much money on food. He actually came on the podcast and really shamed me for it. Oh, yes! Then I stopped. Chris Bevan. Yes. Bevan, yeah. So I stopped rages. And then if you look at my previous orders this week, I've gone back. I've gone back. They were on offer. They were actually£3, I think. Delicious, though. I'm sorry. It's up to me. £3. Here we go.
4:53Some new ones. Crispinos. Ooh, Crispinos. Gorgeous. Gorgeous. I was also going to say bikinis. Bikinis. I don't spend money on bikinis anymore. No? No, used to. No. Have you heard of a brand called Same? No. Oh, no. Be careful. am I going to go back be very careful it's an it's an American brand she's I think she was an influencer and then she's just opened I think it's her second or third store in Capri Capri Capri not Capri Capri Sun and once you start diving into that hole you'll never be able to come out but genuinely I can't afford it so I sort of look and then wait for an end of season sale do you know what that's a really good tip with swimwear is to buy it like now and you might not have a holiday planned like the rest of August or whatever it is, but then you've got it for next year.
5:41Yeah, and also, can I just say that the majority of my clothes are from the high street? Yeah. I don't spend any money on designer gears. Yeah, no, I don't either. And most of my shoes have been eaten by my dog, look. I look. Actually, yeah, they actually have. Yeah, that's true. Okay, let's go here. What part of parenting are you secretly really good at? That's such a good question from Becky, I love that. Oh, secretly really good at? Yeah. I don't think that's secretive if I'm good at something What are you going to shout from the rooftops? Well I'm always like yeah I'm actually good at that What am I really good at?
6:13Or maybe a bit that we don't know necessarily that you might not talk about Because it's hard isn't it to be like oh look at me I'm really good at this Yeah what are you good at? I'm really good at the emotional stuff Like the other day my little boy I'm so proud of him He had a massive melt like huge huge screaming shouting he really took himself somewhere which was really uncomfortable for him he'd been really rude I was being really firm with him I sent him to his room because of the things that he'd said to me and his sisters and it was hard for me to keep him up there but I was like this has to be the consequence for the language that he'd used and the things that he'd said and the disrespect that he'd shown me and I could hear him upstairs like he was definitely throwing stuff around whether it was he kicked the fan over which was really irritating but he'd like checked chucked his desk chair over and I could tell that he I was right outside the room by the way so I was like I'd gone up there at this point and I was like can you stop doing that anyway afterwards once he'd kind of regulated I then sat him down and just said look kit you've got to speak to me about this and he was through the tears and like shame that was coming out he said um I find it really difficult to control my anger I was like oh there we go yeah I know how big it was for him to say that because he does he has all that testosterone eight-year-old boy stuff going on yeah before I wasn't seeing much of the realization or having the like self-awareness yeah he knows yeah and that's like half a thing isn't it yeah so i'm proud of him and i'm proud of me for kind of sitting with him and like holding him keeping it yeah keeping it because i didn't rant and rage either yeah that's good i mean it's not secretly because i think i've spoken about look i'm good at keeping calm like i am good at that but i think do you know what i think i'm really good now at giving each child time yeah like i every night it's more with axel because of his age like he's pulling away a bit now you know wants to be with his friends more and like can do his own thing which is fine but i make sure every single night before bed i get into bed with him for like 10 minutes and i just talk to him about stuff yeah and i think that's yeah with gi gi she she talks me all day so like it's not uh yeah it's like yeah she's like my little friend so it's fine but yeah i am i'm good at giving them even if it's 10 minutes it was that one person on the podcast that came on and said that they had like five siblings but their mum gave them a little bit of time each day i'm good at that i love that george well done you legend um where should we go i can't wait for your response to this yeah please tell us something that your partner does that still makes you fancy them, George?
8:53Oh, it's hard when you say still, because it's not a new thing, but like, I fancy James when he's really good with the kids. Oh, right. Like, when he's really, like, just really good, and like, calm and nice and lovely to them, I'm like, oh, that is 10-10. That's just, yeah, I just think that's everything. I didn't think you were going to say that. No, what do you think I was going to say? Like, maybe he's got like a special move. That just cringes me out. It's not your parent, it's your husband. Yeah, it just cringes me out. No. No, go on, wash yours. This is so shallow. Yeah. But I just love it when he looks really fit.
9:34Like if he's been to the gym a lot and he's got a tan. Yeah. And he looks really good in his pants, I just really fancy him. Well, that's great. Like I think that's important to me. Yeah. like obviously if he's really kind to me and he looks after me makes me a cup of coffee yeah things like this morning yeah he made me a cup of coffee and I called him after he left to go to work and I said I just want to say how much I appreciated that and I said I can't remember the last time that either of us have made each other a cup of tea or coffee yeah I said thank you so much and he was like I love you so much I'm right there next year it was really beautiful so that was lovely but aside from that it's just looking good in his pants okay yeah there we go um okay would you rather have unlimited child care or unlimited holidays oh my god unlimited holidays yes no not not even a second thought on that no i mean i have unlimited child care already and you're too bad on your holidays me neither unlimited holidays yeah me too definitely easily because because i have i'm really starting to get around and you i know you're feeling like this too that we both we're grafters yeah we both work really really hard yeah i know that lots of people listening are grafters as well like we're all simple we're all built similarly like we're tough and we bring in you know but actually fundamentally how long do we want to be grafting this hard for yeah i know exactly and how long is it like actually possible like what age should i retire is it 60 has it gone up now i think it's like 75 or so i can't do another 34 years of this wow you're fucking dead buckle up buckle up um
11:21oh what's something about motherhood that you can share with us that nobody warned you about
11:31that there's no privacy now you've got a dog as well like literally no no as in like you can't have any conversation without it getting back that is something that i just i just didn't think of until last week like for instance say like this this is not a private matter but it's just something you wouldn't talk about necessarily so we're going to do some work on our house we had three estate agents come around to value so that we're not like you know spending too much or you know whatever yeah and you kind of have these conversations and you'll you know throw around like figures of you know just between James and I like oh this is what it will be worth this is this is worth it this is what we're going to do um and you think that that's just like a conversation between you two oh no I then like go to pick Axel up from his friend's house and they're like oh we hear that you're going to do a renovation it's going to cost oh my god what huh and like it's not but that isn't like a there's not like a secret is it it's not like oh naughty but now i've realized we cannot say anything that we don't want everyone to know yeah and i think basically yeah you're right yeah and also i think there has to be a level of understanding now that they're at the age where they understand a lot more than they used to yeah yeah maybe think that they do yeah and that's like a low level thing i'm talking about you know that sometimes you uh there's a school chat at the moment boring boring boring but like we'll say oh i don't like that school because this this and this between us as a family yeah oh no he'll go to school and be like oh well my mom and dad don't like that and i'm like oh god you can't you literally have any opinions you cannot say because they don't have that like context of don't tell everyone yeah of course and it's the same for how you feel about various people well everything, everything like I think I must have said something to Doz and not realised that Luna was ear wigging it's like she's like a beacon for gossip yes and suddenly I look at her and I'm like let Leah switch off and she'll be like she said to me the other day she went but you didn't deserve that when she said that to you and I'm going to tell her.
13:45And I was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. That's a private covers agent or, you know, or when your sister or whatever it was. And I'm thinking, God, who else is she telling? Yeah, no, no, totally. You have to be super careful. Yeah. And I think my mum has told me a few things recently that Axel said, and he's obviously just got the complete wrong end of the stick. Yeah. So that's also really dangerous as well, where they just get the wrong end of the stick. Yeah. And then they're spreading rumours about you. My mum's a big slap. Yeah. actually she wanted a new bag I would also say that I didn't really realise the internal tussle that I would sometimes feel with the amount of love and how much I wanted this and how much I never wanted to end with sometimes feeling like there is zero freedom and I can't get away does that make sense?
14:37it's like this really weird two sides of two sides of complete opposite coin situation going on where I'm like I never want to be away from this I love it so much and then fucking hell I can't even get you know peace for five minutes yes very weird that push and pull it is really weird I actually saw a post on Instagram when I was coming to the studio I don't know if you follow her her handle is like Bambi loves beauty or something anyway she's like 35 she lives with her mom she's single and she always talks about how she loves living at home still she's doing really well like financially takes her mum business class to all these places she's doing like really great things and she posts she's put up a post and said for the first time ever I'm questioning now if I actually want to be a mum oh wow um she was in a hotel and a little kid came up to her and was like mom up like for a second because she obviously was lost or like you know just thought she was her mum and she said and it felt really good and she she's like really honestly she's like I don't know if I'm too late I don't know if this will actually happen to me for me and she said she's at the point now where she doesn't know if she's going to make her life or ruin her life by this choice and I was reading it and I was like god it's so true because if I think if I'd have thought about it logically like if you were actually being logical, I was 26 when I got pregnant.
16:06I might have gone like, these are the pros, these are the cons, right? The cons would have massively outweighed the pros, wouldn't they? Like if you write it all down, they would. But it's really difficult to explain to somebody who is trying to make that decision that although there's all this stuff that we moan about, you won't regret it. Oh, never, not for a second. Like, and even if you do, like in split moments, like what the hell am I doing? Why have I done this? overall, you don't, I don't know, there's like a weird like feeling. Yeah, it's weird, isn't it? Yeah, and I don't think, that's why I think, I'm not sure you can ever get to, if you start thinking about it too much and you start diving into it, then you're going to be muddled.
16:48Because how can you ever know how it feels? You know, you and I were really lucky. We just got into a situation where we fell in love with these men. Yeah, it wasn't like a thought out, shall we? It was just a, I don't know. Let's do it. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's interesting. It is, yeah. We'll be right back after this short break.

19:18Welcome back to this episode of Made by Mamas. Now, where were we? This is so funny. which one of you guys would you trust most with your kids for a week and least which one like like if i was to leave my kids with you for a week yeah what do you think would happen and if you were to leave your kids with me who would we trust the most to look after each other's kids and our own kids at the same time that's so mean that is responsible mothers thanks very much yeah okay what do you think would the consequence be of leaving your kids with me what do you think they would come back with well they would come back with a massive acardo bill okay that is fair yes they would come back um no do you know what george we've never done it but i think they would have the most brilliant week because you take them to loads of different places you would give them all your time and attention they would probably eat more food than they do at the moment they would maybe left be left to their own devices a bit more yeah maybe a bit bit more independent yeah no I think it'd be great I'd probably trust you more would you yeah because like I'm a bit loose sometimes actually yeah to be fair depending which stage of life though he's in at that point I would yeah they'd be better with me um I think they'd come back better athletes if you would get them into all the sports they'd be playing tennis yeah they'd be fitter yeah yeah um they would probably listen to more music they would definitely listen to more music they'd probably have lots of fun yeah we'd have lots of fun yeah same at yours so i think they'd have a good time i think it would be fine when george were talking about doing a holiday together with the kids maybe just me g and then and the two the little two and then your two um over october halftime yeah so that could be quite fun that could be fun i think we should do it Which babysitter are we taking with us?
21:14Mark? Mark. Producer Mark? Yeah, brilliant. Right, where do you want to go next? What age have you found the hardest so far and why? Oh, good question.
21:28Okay, my hardest age without a shadow of a doubt was when I had two under three and neither of them were at preschool and Kit had the savage reflux and Luna, you know, was a little toddler and was kind of doing everything and smashing up all my makeup and, you know, just being kind of a kid. And so, yeah, I found that utterly exhausting. Yeah. Yeah, because it's not like, I think maybe having a newborn and then a toddler, you know, the newborn will sleep all the time. Yeah. But once that baby then becomes one and starts walking and then you've got another child. because there's only seven 16 months between my two remember they're like two and a half coming up to three it was a madhouse like I look back to some of those videos and I think I look at myself and I'm like who the hell is that yeah like black eyes exhausted yeah you know just like it felt like I'd been released from some sort of like I don't know day prison do you know what I mean no I do I do I know exactly what you mean I really remember those times as well because obviously yours are closer in age.
22:36I really, yeah, I do remember when it's like, they are, they're almost like both at the same stage at the same time, but also not. So it's like, yeah, that did look very hard. I remember getting locked out of my house with both of them. And it was like, I'd done something for Sky or something. I think I'd breastfed live on TV and I had to take Luna with me. And obviously Kit was little. And then when I got back to the house, I was locked out. And I remember having to sit on the porch and just wait for like hours and hours until someone came to rescue me with the two of them going absolutely bonkers.
23:08They were crying, screaming. I was just thinking, why if I just leave them here? Oh my God. What would happen then? You know, like it's those moments which you can never prepare yourself for, can you? Character building, George. No, that is character building. What about you? I think now. No. Not with Gigi. Axel, 100 % now. How on his stage now? Yeah, definitely. I think I've had easy young children. Right. Like when I look back, To me, Axel was probably quite difficult as a toddler. He used to run away and stuff like that. But, like, I didn't have – Gigi would have been young, so he always had enough time, if that makes sense.
23:43They were always far enough in age that it was okay. Whereas now, I find this hard. Like, yeah, I think Axel's been a really good boy. Like, so good. and then now I'm like, oh my God. Because he's growing in power. Yeah, yeah. And it's really hard. It's really difficult. Like when he, he just always, I swear, like I used to be like, oh, Axel, can you do it? He'd be like, yeah, sure, no problem. And now he's like, no. Or just all of those things. And I'm like, oh my God, I don't know what to do here. I'm not sure what to do. Kit said to me the other day, he went, I'm every man's worst nightmare.
24:29And I said, what do you mean by that? And he goes, I'd do the cheap shot to the balls if anyone came up to me. I said, where have you heard that? And he goes, Daddy. Oh, Jesus. Every man's worst nightmare. What the hell is Dozza saying to him when I'm not around? Oh, my God. So, yeah, I think we're going to have it with our boys. Yeah, I think, yeah, I'm just at this stage now where I think he's, yeah, I don't know. I think it's just because it means more. I think that's what it is. it's like when they're young if they're acting out you're like oh it's fine whatever now i'm just like oh my god is this who you're gonna be what that's the difficult you know max rogers kimberly wife's husband who's a really dear friend he said to me the other day he said we have no control who they're gonna be as adults yeah so they turn out to be twats yeah we've done our we've done the best that we can yeah and actually as adults we have no control over that i don't think you've got anything to worry about i just think you've got a very bright high performance kid and that is a blessing who thinks i am like literally a dickhead well i mean he i mean he does not 70 of the time he does because he just i just honestly think he thinks like ah just leave apart from when he's getting me to freaking driving around to stalk his girlfriend I'm there I'm right there with him whoa whoa whoa whoa right pull up why are you joking no no no that is hysterical he has got this like hardcore crush like I'm not joking this is we've obviously played the song oh yes the song he says things like I remember the first time I saw her smile her eyes do this like it's deep crush I mean I even feel awkward around her like no no it's like I've got the crush it's really awkward are they hanging out no no no they even talk to each other when they see each other they did a weird thing in a restaurant recently we were in a restaurant at the same time as them and they sort of like circle each other are they the same age yeah they're in the same class and or they like went to the toilet at the same time and then Gigi's like they're talking through the wall you know you're like oh my god it's just it's a real but he like I am really supportive like I am there for him and he will talk to me about all of it and he really likes me then yeah but when it comes to like anything else you just provide the way he's just like oh you like he says to james all the time this girl like this girl oh my god georgia yeah but sharpen him off yeah no james is because me and james have got that relationship haven't we where we like just take the piss out of each other constantly that's what we that's that is our thing like we i don't know that's just our relationship this girl he goes just looks at like this girl um so he has almost taken that but without the like context of it yeah so james is now like no no no no no axel mummy's great and mummy's this and he finds that so awkward as well because he's obviously just wants to rip this out of me as well but now he's like no i've really got to like show him that we can't just this girl her or this girl yeah this girl this girl this girl This girl.
27:42It's so good. Let's make a song about mummy. Let's make a rap about mum, this girl. I'd hate to know it. Oh, I can't wait to ask you this question. Mm-hmm. Georgia, what did you genuinely think of Zoe when you first met? Ooh. Be nice. No, I don't think I feel like anything. Do you know what I mean? When you say what do you think? I just thought you were really lovely. Oh, that's nice. Yeah, what's this person got against me? That's not very interesting. I'm really sorry. that's not interesting but you just thought it was really nice I just thought you were great like just really friendly and like I can't even take the piss I'm really sorry I just can't think of anything sometimes can I be honest sometimes I think that I'm I can be too chaotic sometimes it can be quite dramatic with me you are dramatic but I didn't think that when I first met you no no sometimes I worry because I can't be dramatic with anyone else there aren't that many people that I can be that dramatic with whereas with Georgia as in like there aren't many people that will hold the stuff that I come with and sometimes as she's got her legs up right now although this actually no this is not dramatic this is actually generally worrying me no because and this is actually worrying like this is not my calf's been a bit sore anyway we're not gonna talk about my calf but like sometimes I think I know that me being a Scorpio and me feeling the way that I feel things and like sometimes it's a bit chaotic sometimes I think oh does she think I'm a bit much or does she think that I'm bringing too much and that you know I'm not stable and I'm stable though right?
29:21No but what do you think? What do you mean? What was it like? What do you mean? Am I too messy? Am I too chaotic? No you're not too chaotic. Promise? I promise. Because I only share really that stuff with you and I have it with my other girlfriends. No and I'm like Like, so glad that you can. Yeah, but you're the opposite of that. I am the opposite of that. Yeah. But I don't think, I don't know. I feel like maybe all my friends are chaotic. Yeah, I don't think you're any more chaotic than most people. Oh, okay. I think you're, yeah, I think you're fine. Okay. Yeah. All right. No, yeah, yeah, I think you're fine.
29:55Could have been a breakdown of the podcast there for a second. Imagine if I was just like, well, when I first met you, I thought you were an absolute diggerd. Well, I know you didn't. I still do now. Off I'm going. You sent me the first text. I did. Georgia asked me out on the date, not the other way around. I was Axel. Now we know where we know what comes from. This girl. Right, should we just do one more? Let's do one more. What's something you judged other parents for before you had kids that you do all the time now? Oh, my God. Mine would be, and I feel so bad about this, but this would be genuinely way before I had children, when I was a kind of maybe like late teen in my 20s, would be, in my mind, parents that couldn't control their kids on the plane.
30:39What an absolute arsehole. Like, what an arsehole. I mean, I don't think that that is... I don't think that's unusual. I don't think that's unusual either. But I feel dreadful. I've never said anything. But in my mind, I was thinking, oh, God, please don't put me next to the parent with the child that was screaming. The minute I became a parent and I understood it, if there was ever a kid on the plane and I could see a mum or a dad that's kind of like having problems, I'll go straight over and be like, can I get you some water? Can I help you? I'm one of those parents now because I think, Jesus Christ, that is such a mission.
31:08But yeah, that's quite an honest admission from me. Don't hate me. That is what I thought. No, I think that's fair. What about you? I think I'd be the same, like that sort of thing. Like just not being, people not being able to control their kids like in public, just in general. Like I'd be like, God, for God's sake. But now I think I never thought I'd say those like, you know, just like empty threats. I think I just, my auntie had a little girl, Liberty, who's now like 23, I think, maybe 22. So I was like a teenager when she was born. And I remember like when she was a toddler, she was a nightmare, like absolute nightmare.
31:50She used to be having full blown meltdowns in the house. And we all used to go and sit in the car outside. Oh my God. Because she was sucked chaos. and I do remember my auntie saying things like well you're that's it you're not having any like this anymore knowing full well she didn't mean it and I used to think you don't mean that now I do it all the time the amount of times I've taken the playstation away and put it in the garage and like said that's it no more playstation and then gone back and had to go Axel how do you set this back up i don't know how many times so now all these empty i'm just an m i am useless with discipline and threats my threats are completely empty they are not going to happen they're not going to be followed through that is definitely something i do all the time you are going to get the cheap tin tomatoes unless you don't buckle up no i won't never get them on the black market um no actually someone here has put if you could only keep five beauty products for the rest of your life what are they okay first one elemis cleansing balm yeah absolutely 100 % abagi um the number three the one that helps with my pigmentation um the what else would it be it would be the charlotte tilbury lip gloss absolutely love it it would be a murad mud face mask which i'll link which is really detoxifying and purifying i've been doing it loads on my skin and the final one would be a Tatcha night cream.
33:23Oh, I like that Tatcha cream. Mine would be Dyson Airwrap because you can do everything with it pretty much. A good moisturizer, either Beauty Pie, Hyaluronic Acid one or the Medicaid one, which I'm going to go and buy on the way back tonight because I've just run out. Bobby Brown Skin Corrector Concealer because that is everything. by Terry Tita Tan oh yeah I love that I think in the winter I'll love it again do you know what I mean yeah at the moment you can't love it now I can't be David Dickinson if I carried on with that and last one ooh what lipstick do I oh the Laura Mercier lip crayon amazing there we go love that finish off thank you so much for sending in all of your questions we absolutely love doing these ask us anything so we'll probably do another one in a month or so.
