Teaching children about money! With Louise Hill, Founder of GoHenry

We started by speaking to Louise all about her background including extensive experience in E-Commerce and the moment GoHenry came to be (she blames her kids who clicked rather alot on iPod downloads!)!  

We also talked about: 

  • GoHenry’s founding aim to increase confidence to use and understand money in what was an increasingly cashless environment. 
  • What GoHenry is and how it works. 
  • How GoHenry helps with financial education with their ‘money missions’ on the App 
  • Where the name GoHenry came from (such a lovely story!). 
  • How to help children learn about the concepts of money from a young age.  
  • Claire and Becks’s own attitudes to money and how it’s spoken about in our households. 
  • How GoHenry is working hard to get financial education introduced as part of the national curriculum to EVERY child. 
  • Question from our listener, Jason - should children be educated about the stock market and investing from a young age? Louise’s biggest regret is that noone spoke to her about it! 
  • The effects of a cashless society and how to help children understand worth. How GoHenry can help with this. 
  • How Louise’s children are with money now!

About the Podcast

Newborn to Teen and Everything in Between
Your go-to for advice on how to communicate with the children in your life. Brought to you by family consultancy Bespoke Family, enabling families to thrive
Newborn to Teen and Everything Inbetween - it does exactly what it says on the tin! Join childcare experts Becks and Claire for practical advice about how to communicate with children, at all ages.
There can be a lot of pressure to 'get it right' when it comes to children, which can be quite daunting! Whether you’re a parent, a teacher, TA or childcare worker, or just looking to gain a better understanding of the world through a child’s eyes, Becks and Claire have 25 years of childcare experience to share with you. Listen for reassurance and support to help you navigate tricky conversations, challenging behaviour, complex emotions, and the general day to day pressures of raising and working with children.
This is a judgement-free zone - you won't find a one-size-fits-all rule book here! The perfect parent doesn't exist, but in their family consultancy business Bespoke Family, Becks and Claire believe that a child centred approach which recognises and respects individuality is the best way to enable families to thrive. Join Becks and Claire for accessible, light-hearted and well researched advice and guidance on the various ways we can tackle the ups and downs of life with children (they've got a great sense of humour too, so if you love a laugh you're in great company!)
