How can I be the best mum?

I have a 1 year old and genuinely curious of how I can be the best mum possible to him.

I try my best to spend time sitting, exploring and talking to him. I know how to make him belly laugh and I have never felt myself lose my temper with him. I do however sometimes allow miss Rachel or Mickey Mouse tv time when I’m overwhelmed (I work full time so balancing being a mum and working is tricky). I also don’t have a lot of money at the moment just with paying off some debt so I buy a lot of his things from Vinted - not sure if this makes me a bit of a crappy mum.

How can I be better?

Be like a sister. No need to be like a mother teaching or training the child. Just be like a companion and keep attending to your life and other worries.

Don't talk or keep attending to the child constantly. Child is very observant and learns on its own.

Many try to overdo and end up being a slave of the child.
