Now that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are no longer working royals, they are enjoying a different life in sunny California with their two children, Archie and Lilibet. It seems that Californian life is offering a particular kind of freedom that Harry didn’t have in the royal family, with the latest example being the couple’s decision to send Archie to a nursery school that teaches more than just traditional skills.
Without a doubt, Meghan and Harry are living the California dream in Montecito with their children Archie and Lilibet. Archie Mountbatten-Windsor is an adorable little baby, and in the few photos that have been made public so far, some royal fans claim that the little one bears a strong resemblance to his father, Prince Harry, that is, baby
Since Archie was born in the spring of 2019, his parents, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, have been careful to keep him out of the public eye as much as possible. While new Buckingham Palace mothers often let the public peek at a royal newborn on the steps of the Lindo Wing of St. Mary’s Hospital on the day of his birth, Archie’s parents went against protocol royalty and did not invite the press to take a photo.
Lillibet was born on June 4, 2021 and is a happy baby, according to her mother and father. The Duke and Duchess said that Archie made them parents, but Lillibet made them a family.
Although he is busy working as a CIO for BetterUp and being the father of two children, Harry finds time to take care of himself and his mental health. He reads on to find out more about how the prince makes time for self-care and why he thinks it’s important.

The day of the birth of Archiehis father, prince harry, addressed the public to announce that his wife had given birth to a “very healthy boy”, assuring everyone that both the baby and the mother were well and resting.
Just two days later, the young family made their first outing as a unit, and the newborn made his debut as a new member of the royal family. That same day, Harry and Meghan Markle formally announced the name of their son: Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.
Unlike their cousins, the three sons of the duque William and the duquesa Kate, Archie doesn’t have a royal title. Due to a charterwhich is a legal order of the monarchy, from 1917, only certain people can have the title of “prince”, and Archie unfortunately does not qualify.
Although the happy parents had the option of choosing the subsidiary and honorary title of Earl of Dumbarton for their son, they decided against it, according to the time magazine. Harry and Meghan decided they wanted a more private life for little Archie.
For a two-year-old boy, Archie has moved all over the world. After being born in London, Archie moved with his parents, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, to Vancouver Island for several months, before returning to Meghan’s home state of California.
Then, after both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were no longer active members of the royal family, the group moved to Los Angeles, a place familiar to former actress Meghan, in March 2020. However, not satisfied with hustle and bustle of life in Los Angeles, Harry, Meghan and Archie decided to settle in Montecito, Santa Barbara, for a little more privacy.

Now little Archie is attending daycare in his California hometown. What informs The Mirror, the school that Meghan and Harry have chosen for their son offers something more than traditional teachings, although these are still represented, of course.
The usual first things a child is taught are still offered: reading, writing, numbers, as well as the first knowledge of Spanish, music, dance, theater and even coding. However, aside from these academic focuses, the infant school also focuses on teaching what they call “emotional literacy” and mindfulness, reflecting an emphasis on mental health and social skills that the Duke and Duchess have previously declared to hold in high regard.
Prince Harry is the Impact Director of BetterUpwhich is a dedicated mental health coaching agency that works to “unlock greater potential, purpose, and passion.”
Class sizes are small at the nursery, The Mirror reports, and children spend time growing their own vegetables and plants in the nursery gardens, which feature fruit trees, a wide variety of plants and plenty of opportunity to get up close and personal. nature.
the british magazine The Mirror spoke with one of the parents of one of the children who attends the nursery. Not surprisingly, little Archie seems to get a lot less attention than he would if he attended an English nursery school:
“Harry often drops off and picks up Archie, and he seems like a good father. All the parents have taken Harry and Meghan in quietly, without making a fuss. And to the other kids, Archie is one of them. They don’t know their parents are from royalty, and they probably wouldn’t care, unless Meghan was a Disney princess.”

Prince Harry doesn’t just talk about mental health, he practices self-care whenever he can. The parent recognizes that as busy parents, sometimes taking care of one’s own needs gets lost along the way. “Self-care is the first thing you lose. I’m happy to admit it, as a husband and as a father,” He said.
But the Duke continues to strive to find time for himself. “Okay, one of the kids is off to school. The other one is taking a nap. There’s a break in our show. It’s like, okay, it’s for exercise, walking the dog, going out in nature, maybe to meditate”, shared Prince Harry.
Harry advocated for more help for working parents who don’t have time to regularly practice self-care. “You can’t expect people to work on themselves if you don’t give them time to do it,” He said. “When people focus on inner work, these people are better at work and they are better at home.”
Even as a member of the Royal Family, Harry strives to be a perfect father just like anyone else. “No matter what I put into it, I’m always kicking myself saying, ‘If you had done this, this, this, that you know works for you, then you wouldn’t be in this state right now.'” Harry said.
Fortunately for Meghan and Harry, Lillibet is much calmer than her older brother. Her father said, “We’ve been very lucky so far. … (She) seems happy sitting while Archie runs around like crazy.”
