About Dr Siobhan Kennedy-Costantini

Hey Friends 👋
I'm Siobhan.
I'm a Child Development PhD with over a decade of experience studying children's social & cognitive development and the parent-child relationship.
After having my own little one, I became aware about how little of the information given to parents is evidence-based. I decided to do something about it & started ‘Science Minded’.
My goal is to help bridge the gap between parents’ desire for factual, well-researched information & the research that’s out there.
I fact-check all my posts, reading widely & thoroughly on each topic.
Knowledge is power & when we have access to information that is clear, concise & makes sense to us, we can feel more confident in our choices.
I am fascinated by children’s cognitive, social & emotional development & passionate about sharing it to empower parents and educators so that they can better understand the magic that is a child's mind.
