The presenters, Katie Thistleton and Governor Bee, are joined by the Traitor Series 3 winner, that's Leanne Quigley, and GP and medical broadcaster, Dr. Nighat Arif.

Hands down, the first bit of advice is you know your babies.

And then the parents are still looking at me going, oh, Dr. Nagar, it was, you know, Lucy was not like this.

I'm like, babe, I believe you, but can I just see it?

Dr. Nagar, Arif and Leanne Quigley speaking to Katie Thistleton and Governor Bee.

And you can hear the full episode by going to BBC Sounds and searching for the CBeebies Parenting download or checking out the new CBeebies Parenting YouTube channel.

So today we're asking what level of illness parents should expect, when children need to stay home, and which symptoms mean it's time to seek medical advice.

Joining us to share her experience is Traitor Series Three winner Leanne Quigley.

And we have GP, TV doctor, and author of the Complete Guide to Family Health, the one-stop healthcare guide no home should be without, Dr. Nighat Arif.

Thank you both for joining us.

And I suppose there's a lot more disabled artists who've come into this space as well.

Like, I'm thinking of Leanne Quigley, who's a deaf artist, and she's kind of working in a similar way to me that's saying, like, actually, you know, sign language is a beautiful language.

It is.

And that that has an art as well, the same way that I'm saying, like, the non-visual senses are art, you know.

I think it's like the cramps are in there and other bands.

And just like, um, you know, Leanne Quigley is the actress who plays, uh, her name is trash if I'm not mistaken.

And she, you know, does a sexy dance on top of a, on top of a gravestone with her crazy red hair and her ripped t-shirt and fishnet stockings and all that.

I alluded earlier.
