The Princess of Wales launches Christmas Baby Banks initiative

- Опубликовано: 10 дек 2023
- Our experiences, relationships and surroundings during early childhood lay foundations that shape the rest of our lives, and future society. Supporting parents and carers, who are doing their best to provide for their families in challenging circumstances is essential and can have a life-changing impact.
Baby Banks are warm, caring places for families to access equipment, products, clothes and toys to help relieve some of the stresses creating significant pressures on people caring for babies and young children.
For more information on how to access or donate products to Baby Banks this Christmas, visit the Centre for Early Childhood: centreforearlychildhood.org/

I'm a Brazilian living in the USA , I have no connections to the UK , But I think the British Monarchy is such a gift, specially this family! The way they support charities, highlight problems without any political dog in the race warms my heart. Thank you to the Wales Family and for those who volunteer around the world
So very humble family.❤❤❤
Yes, this Canadian agrees!
I absolutely adore The Wales Family.❤
We could use a family like this in the US. Bravo to Will and Kate. Absolutely amazing.
Couldn’t agree more! ❤
@@cristinaxo This German agrees too 💯👏.
I'm an American and I must say, the Wales family are a breath of fresh air.
Same -American here 🇺🇸. Love this family!
Same here love this family, makes me think what I can do to help families in need. Specially now with the economy is not helping people in needs. 🇨🇦
Same here! I think Wales is so fortunate to have this family, and the children are being taught such important things by their mother.
I am from wales and we are proud to call them the prince and princess of wales
Lovely to see the children being guided correctly. George. Will be King long after I am gone but what they learn now will make him a great King. Charlotte was really getting stuck in. She’s a lovely girl and Louis was very interested. I think they all three of the kids are lovely children and with the parents have got whether they were royals or not they’ll do just fine❤
Love how “ George wants to come back”! Yes momma, train them to serve and care about others!
George will make a fine King someday. He has wonderful parents who have taught him about kindness and compassion.
Bet most of these clothes will go to nonwhites, but yet they will continue hating whites. A good reason why not to help them.
This is beautiful!
Beautiful
Nice ❤
👍
This is what the late Princess of Wales used to do: bring the children with her, let them experience and make them understand. I'm so touched to see the Wales children there with Princess Catherine continuing this line of service and duty.
Harry might be doing the same if he had children. It’s a shame he made his life such a mess with lies and anger.
@DutchJoan Exactly what I was thinking. Diana would’ve loved and been so proud to see this!
This is a great way for them to learn that they are special and privilaged and that there are kids who aren't that lucky . They brought the kids without fuzz in private and secret (as we are finding out about this a month later) . The kids get to be in a small but safe environment while they learn 😍😍😍😍😍
Yes, but Princess Catherine learned it from her own family. It is obviously a great help that both William and Catherine have the same values to teach their adorable children
Catherine IS more understated than Diana was....
What a wonderful mother teaching her children the value of giving back to others and recognizing those in need. There is not a greater gift than compassion for others, and while I am sure Catherine and William teach many private lessons on selflessness at home, it is good to see George, Charlotte and Louis in action. No doubt these children will live lives of service and respect for all.
Then they go home to their free food, clothes, holidays, living in opulance never worrying about where the next meal is coming from, what angels they really are, I hope that jumper is the right colour Kate is holding
❤❤❤
@@trickydickybeer1 what a nasty comment to say to a family who’s volunteering their time. Have you volunteered lately?
@@FlossiePala
There is always an idiot amongst us
Amen. totally agree.
This is the kind of thing Princess Diana
would be excited about 😊
Teaching her Grandchildren to understand the world outside their own privileged life x
Absolutely! It reminds me of when Diana used to take her boys to visit homeless shelters. ❤
This is such a wonderful, caring video. Princess Catherine bringing her children to volunteer helping with the huge job of sorting of dividing the donations for families in need. Not only have they learned the positive lesson of volunteering, but more importantly, they are learning about the thousands of children and families who are struggling and will be so happy to receive this loving outpouring of support from their communities during the holidays. The Wales children are caring and loving just like their wonderful parents. 💖
Bet most of these clothes will go to nonwhites, but yet they will continue hating whites. A good reason why not to help them.
Wonderful The Wales Family. God bless them.
Those children are so well behaved and polite, a credit to their parents. They get stuck in and Catherine explains what it's for and why it's important. It looks like they brought donations from home too. How worthwhile.
There will undoubtedly be a monetary donation too but this is never spoken about
@@christinewhitfeld7939 They bring awareness to the charity, they may or may not have give a donation too. But it's the life lesson she is giving her children, that has no price tag.
The children are being raised to become decent caring adults. Well done to the Prince and Princess of Wales who are great role models as parents.
@@christinewhitfeld7939 what do you mean?
👍
What a beautiful family. Teaching the children how to be kind and compassionate and DO something to help. Real action. Real care. Bravo to the British RF! From America, who misses you.
Agreed! 🇺🇸❤️🇬🇧!
Catherine is a great teacher to her children…simple as that! Just having them aware of other human beings, like themselves.
FFS, the are the most privileged children in the world. The question you should be asking why there us such disparity in wealth in the UK and why the need for food banks and toy banks.
Kitty puts in a few hours work and you all swoon and say isn't she great.
@@bluechip297
You need to get over yourself.
Catherine dedicates a huge amount of her time to her Charities and especially
to supporting
Early Childhood Learning.
Catherine & William are painfully aware of their children's privileged life, particularly Catherine who was not born into Royalty.
They are doing a great job of keeping their children grounded and in touch with the real world, unlike many 'celebrities'
Are you a troll, a sugar,
a Republican, or just a sad case who can't see good when it is right in front of you ?
@@bluechip297 are you sure crisp?
@@bluechip297 ask the question of your government. Or perhaps what is your opinion of the other 171 billionaires in the UK? The RF do have great privilege and for that they are held to critique for every single tiny detail of their lives. Their children are bullied online by fools. The RF do contribute back to the UK Treasury to the tune of 2.2 billion pounds according to Forbes, all for the sun of 85 million pounds from the Sovereign Grant. Any charity they support brings a lot of donations in to help that charity. Look at Homewards, Look at Centrepoint, look at the Prince of Wales Trust, look at the charities regarding Childrens development. They do a lot for the UK. How much do you contribute to your community?
@@notgadotHe probably is.
👩🏻💻It is so good to see Catherine, the Princess of Wales taking her children and teaching them to serve. I got my kids to plan and prepare a meal to give to one a family having a new baby. When they learn to serve when they are young the children grow to be empathic and compassionate and to look around outside themselves. It is so good to see such an excellent example of guiding her children and being a leader for the world.
🙋♀️😘🥰🇺🇲🇬🇧
We love the Prince & Princess of Wales. It’s so lovely to see the Princess getting her children involved in helping other families that are struggling. 🇺🇸❤ 🇬🇧
And yet you use the British flag and not the Welsh flag…but yeh, piggy back on our country.
I agree, it's wonderful to see the Wales' getting stuck in and helping those less fortunate. Such a lovely family.
@@Welshybe grateful instead of sniffing around for trouble.. your bag is coming to your door soon😂
Love seeing a whole family volunteer together!
The Firm is in good hands Ma'am
This made me tear up. QE II must be beaming down at them.
What a beautiful comment ❤
@@user-xq8yk5yd6f Thank you. I really do think she would be proud of the Wales
That is REAL parenting. Teaching your children compassion, humility, generosity, love, giving, and always remembering that not everyone is as blessed as you. May God continue blessing and protecting them all.
Got very emotional watching how down to earth the Wales family are. Catherine PRINCESS of Wales emits beauty from within.
The interactions between herself the children, and the people surrounding her
Is genuine and regal.
💕The children are so naturally well behaved. May God bless them. The Wales family is built on solid foundations and stability.
👍🙏🏼
kate is so like diana she loves kids she will make a wonderfal queen one day
So lovely to see the bond between Catherine and her children and them all doing their bit for those less fortunate. God bless them.
You can be sure that a substantial donation was made too.❤
The Prince and Princess of Wales are the most wonderful caring parents teaching their children how to help others less fortunate. It’s lovely to see how well they work together and were really helping do everything themselves. What a wonderful future the Monarchy has. 💜🎄🎅🏼🎁
Our late Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II ❤️ and her beloved ❤ Prince Philip must be smiling in Heaven, knowing that Catherine, William, and their children are doing such wonderful, caring and meaningful work ❤️ 🎉🎉❤
This is so wonderful. Catherine teaching her children at a young age to give back. I love that they took boxes out of their car to give as well.
Just like Diana did
@@m5sunflower665 She did, and she was marvellous at it, but the family have always been heavily involved in charity work, so personally, I give kudos to the family. I'm sure Diana would be so delighted to see this lovely family in action, and be so proud.
@@bunnymad5049 Diana should have one son she would be proud of.
How can you not love this family❤️ Kudos to the Prince and Princess of Wales for raising well adjusted children! They are doing an amazing job!
Considering how much horror they produced for black and brown countries they stole its easy not to love them. I believe Charles just left Kenya last month after giving a weak apology for what they did. Giving a speech and having a fancy dinner does not right ones wrongs. Perhaps they will travel to those countries and actually reverse the damage they did.

Grow up and move forward. Quit living in the past. 😈
@@Ker-mk3bf Hardly the past when the wealth in the COMMON WEALTH is all in 1 country.
@@Ker-mk3bf One conflict diamond in little Katie’s crown could fix so many of these problems she’s building foundations for.

Grow up
What a treasure the British Monarchy is. Watching these children contribute their help with their mother Catherine for such a great cause is heartwarming, especialky as she explains to them what this charity is for.
Loved this ..children looked like they enjoyed helping
This is AMAZING!!!! Watching Catherine, Princess of Wales with her children!!! They’re learning so much about a life of service and the roles they play. Look how happy they’re helping their mother helping others! 🥰
The fact that the children behave so well and so politely is all due to their parents.
Exactly. In my family, growing up, we as children were brought up to respect our elders. And with manners. If we forgot to say please or thank you, our father would say "What's the magic word" lol
Not to mention the backlash they're going to get if they behave badly just for a few seconds.
@@redpanda3339i have seen pics and videos of them not behaving so well and being reprimanded by Kate. I guess like all kids, they have their moments!
The Wales children are absolutely wonderful!!! So are their parents.
As if you know them.
@@angelwings7930 Don't worry, I'm old enough to be able to trust my judgement 100 percent on this.
@@silva7493 Not so much.
Thank you Baby Banks for everything you do.💛 Thank you, Princess of Wales, for giving your support to this organization and continuing the cycle of volunteering. Bring your children to volunteer will help them in their conviction to volunteer and will hopefully inspire others to also volunteer and give. Thank you.
Seriously impress by the Wales children knuckling down and helping sorting the mound of donation , I am sure the parcels are going to bring much joy to the recipients 🥰
Catherine, I must tell you the love and support you have from around the world is amazing. The amount of lovely heart-warming messages about you and your family that I see on a daily basis melts my heart. You are one special lady and we are proud of everything you do and we are blessed that you are part of our wonderful Royal Family. Bless you and thank you so much ❤
This
American loves the
Wales family!
Very well said !! Please know that 🇨🇦 loves the Wales family also!!! Bxo
Great mother, great wife, and great future Queen of the UK. Princess Catherine works hard to carve out her own roles and create her own style of doing things. It is never "look at me, ain't I a great humanitarian;" we can see her humility, dedication, steadfastness of purpose, and tremendous hard work. Thank you Catherine; we are lucky to have you and your family.
Bet most of these clothes will go to nonwhites, but yet they will continue hating whites. A good reason why not to help them.
The late PD would be very proud that the new generation has the same compassion as she started when with the RF❤.
How inspiring to other young children to see even little princesses and princes help those less fortunate. Well done to the prince and princess of Wales for raising them with compassion for others. ❤
Brought tears to my eyes. I love the Prince and Princess of Wales and their precious children. Catherine and William are teaching their children to care for and help out the less fortunate 💕
This is what Royalty is about. Helping others, learning of the issues the people have and getting involved and helping , using your own hands on approach. Thank you for teaching your children. ❤
I agree with you, Catherine & William do a lot for charities, especially behind the scenes that people are unaware of, they always have, and now they are introducing their children to do the same. It's nice to see them doing things like this with their royal connections unlike the family in the USA that just like to take from their charities for their appearances and clothing etc! I know which family I would get behind, our future King and Queen.
I really love how George and Charlotte and Louis work together to help their mother pack and carry things! It's very rare for me to see something like this! And the first time I saw this video, I feel extraordinary closeness and warmth in the Welsh family ❤ thanks for sharing this video!
Authentic caring and sharing, and learning for the lovely children. Carrying on the legacy of QE2.
The Wales family ❤
That was lovely and the children were so enthusiastic and louis is growing up into a lovely young man god bless them all
Princess Catherine of Wales was raised with love in a good family , and she teaching her children the way she was raised ❤️ ♥️ 💗.
Did you expect them to throw tantrums ? Or what ? As if they don’t know this is propaganda publicity ? 😂😂😂😂😂
This has brought tears to my eyes. Catherine is such a genuine and lovely person. It’s wonderful to see the children joining in.
Me too it was lovely to watch
Me too
Catherine is an amazing mum. Educating her children to show respect and compassion for others who have far less than they do. The royal children do it so carefully and considerately. They are an inspiration. ❤
Oh how beautiful it is to the Wales children help with putting bag's of toys and clothes together for the Baby Bank. They are being brought up to care for others less fortunate than them. God bles the Prince and Princess of Wales along with their kids🙏❤️🇺🇸🇬🇧
I really love that these kids are brought up with respect and to think about others and not themselves 💞 🎄🕊️ 💖
What a wonderful cause, thank you Catherine, Princess of Wales and Family.❤️👍👍❤️
This woman is remarkable in every every way. What a role model for her children , the British people and the world. ❤
I love the energy between Catherine and her children. I heard a quote by Jennifer Lopez where she says she tries to raise her kids with roots and wings. Catherine I think is doing the same thing ❤
Truly wonderful to see our beautiful Catherine Princess of Wales with her adorable children volunteering to help and learning about those less fortunate. Love the Wales family.
😂🤡
@angelwings Go Away
100% agree. They are bringing those children up so very well. They seem so very aware of their place and the privilege it holds and the example they are, and they take it seriously. Love their genuineness. Still miss her late Majesty, but life does go on, and they are all doing so much good. It's heart warming.
@@kimslygh4758 Oh look. A preteen. You go away. 🤡.
So wonderful to see the children helping out. Such a lovely family. ❤
This is beautiful. So happy to see your beautiful family and being taught how to give and help others and the children and babies in need in the U.K. thank you Princess Catherine, Prince George & Princess Charlotte & Prince Louis...you brightened this granny’s day watching this. Happy Christmas to the Wales’ and Royal Family 🏴🇬🇧🎅🏻🤶🏻🎄🎁
It is *so* lovely to see Princess Catherine bringing her children to work and showing them what volunteering and charity is all about. She explains each step to them, they listen beautifully to the other volunteers, and even little Prince Louis wants to come back to help. *That* is raising the next generation in a positive way.
I love this video! Princess Catherine is teaching her children the importance of helping other children who are in need. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a wonderful gift they are giving their own children.. Showing them the love of giving and caring for others. Greatest lesson they are teaching their children. ❤❤❤
So great to see the Wales children helping others. Well done Mom and Dad. Great job!
As if I couldn't love her any more, Princess Catherine continues to shine a light on a rather dim world. Bravo for setting an example not only for her children, but those worldwide. HRH Catherine, Princess of Wales, is a gift to all humanity. Christmas greetings from America!
what a wonderful legacy Catherine has begun :} It will go down in history in a postive way :} She is strong beautiful momma bear. ❤🧸🎄
These children are having the best childhood and the best upbringing of any previous royal children in history. George is going to be a wonderful King because of it and Charlotte and Louis will stand by him and play their own special parts.
That's wonderful that Catherine Princess of Wales brought the children. What a great life lesson for them.
I'm from the USA and I love the Wales family. Parenting and charity done right! 😊❤
Seeing charity first hand. Learning yo give back feels good. What wonderful parents the Prince and Princess of Wales truly are. Leading by example. Giving their children a well-rounded experience.
Princess Catherine is a hands-on mom.
I admire her so much.
It can not be easy raising her children to be good people living in a fish bowl
Just amazing and loved seeing how excited your children were to make another child happy on Christmas. Well Done, George, Charlotte and Louis!
This genuine relationship between a mother and her children, and this genuine interaction between siblings can’t be faked at such a young age. These children will grow up with a balanced perspective on life.
This is so precious. Princess Catherine is such a wonderful role model not only for her children, but to us too! There's an air of elegance and humbleness with her and the children.
The Middletons are a class act and have brought so much to the RF in the form of Princess Catherine that has been wonderfully brought up. ♥️♥️🇬🇧👑
I’m American and this personifies what the royal family means to me❤
I love Catherine Princess of Wales teaching her children to give! Not just materials things also time and effort to do these things. To care and love fellowmen, be selfless. That’s what a mother does. ❤❤❤
Wonderful to see Catherine bring light to the work of a grassroots organization and at the same time teach her children hands-on the importance of helping others. This is truly worth of a Princess.
What a a wonderful mother Princess Catherine is. Raising her children to have love and compassion for all people 👏👏👏❤❤
Absolutely wonderful parenting! The monarchy is in safe hands for generations to come.❤
Just when you think you can’t love Catherine, the Princess of Wale more, this. ❤ How adorable the three Wales children participating in her mother’s initiative. I hope they also had a good time picking toys.
The Wales children are such little angels 😇. Catherine is a good mother. God bless 🙌 the British Royal Family.
I truly believe she would be doing this with her children even without the titles she has a kind spirit! Thank you for sharing this.
What sweet children, so cute too, thank you for your sacrifices and services to the Wales family and all of the Royal Family, we appreciate, respect and love you ❤
This is beautiful to watch!! And Catherine's voice is lovely to listen to. So glad to see her raising her children well. They have opportunities that not everyone is privileged to, and they are doing good with those opportunities. Bless them, and all who are involved with this ministry.
Hello Amdrea
How are you doing today ?
Gulp! Now flipping crying. Well done kids! Thank you Princess Catherine, you make such a difference. With love from Australia x
How incredible, that's what I love about William and Catherine involving children in causes that are important to society ❤
Bless Princess Catherine. What an outstanding mother teaching her children about giving back. About helping people who need a helping hand. Incredible! Bless the Wales family as I'm sure Prince William is in full support of his wife and children. Just beautiful!
Catherine and William are doing such an awesome job raising their children. Teaching kids the importance of giving back is so important. They treat their kids like normal people, not snobbish kids. It’s absolutely wonderful to see. Love the Royals! ❤❤❤❤
What a simple message - to get out there and help, in any way! It is good to see the future royals learning how to help. In the US, we have a few organizations, one is Toy for Tots. Police Dept's , Fire Dept's all get involved, as do individuals to help out. There are many other organizations too: for single parents, for runaway teens, for the animals, and those in hospitals - so many ways to get involved - :)
I feel great pride in this wonderful Royal family . They're like a beacon reminding our country about what is important .
Great to see their children helping out.
The princess is really an asset to the family ❤
This Wales family is different. They are connected to the people ❤️
Wonderful. This is just wonderful! A huge THANK YOU ALL! for all these lovely people in this great charity - - - and for the Waleses who not all shine a light on it, but are giving all their helping hands.... THIS is Christmas as it should be.
What a moving and beautiful initiative. The royal children clearly had a wonderful time and really got stuck in. I hope that the children who receive these gifts are able to enjoy them
the Princess of Wales did set a good example. How to use the privilege well and how to teach the children to be grounded. Well mannered, too. Those children seemed to understand the assignment. Well done Her Royal Highness ❤.
A lovely and natural way to teach children to think of others and have fun in the process / that giving and caring is an enjoyable thing to do. And the princess of Wales driving them herself, no fanfare, no obtrusive security, no airs and graces.
Growing up, my parents always had my brother and I help out at the holidays putting together food boxes, gifts and treats for families. I worked for a fire department, we adopted families and collected toys and brought Christmas gifts to families in our area. So wonderful and the best way to celebrate the season and help others out. Thank you to the Princess of Wales and her children for doing their part to support parents and families who need the extra help this Chirstmas season. And thank you for bringing back wonderful memories for me. Happy Christmas!
Brilliant to see how happy and excited George, Charlotte and Louis are to be helping. It warms my heart. Happy Christmas to all!
Congratulations to Princess Kate for teaching her children the right way and you will always have humble children remember it rubs of well done lots of respect for her.
Love, love, love this❤. Princess Catherine dedicating her energies and focusing on the younger years, the future of our precious world. One compassionate act at a time makes so much of a difference. Wonderful to see her pass on her passion and dedication of royal service to her children. This is what we should be seeing. Positivity and care. Thank you 🥰
Fabulous! Well done! Love seeing the Wales children getting involved! The Prince & Princess of Wales truly understand the most important values in life are caught not taught! Exposing children to these activities is invaluable for their learning!
Catherine is wonderful, bringing her children along to help sort presents for other children who are in need. To give them an understanding that some children are not able to have the things that they themselves have.
It’s what Diana did with William where she showed him how other people live. Keeping it real ❤️ 💕❤️
Yes she would be proud of him and his family
…And this is how you ROYALLY drop the mic. When helping others is of greater importance, than a book, direct attacks to one’s character, and attempts to discredit one’s efforts and values… Catherine, I am not British, but I’ve seen you grow through the years into this majestic person. May you and your family continue to receive good fortune, support from the British people and from people around the world. 🇵🇦🇬🇧
I'm so glad she is showing her children the gift of helping and giving . ❤
Thanks for your love and support towards my family and I, may God Almighty continue to bless you
And she filled her car boot with donations too. The Children are lovely , well behaved funny and happy . Also lucky to have the parents they have . Diana would be bursting with pride 💐
Loved this so much. The children are so well behaved and were genuinely involved in the work. You can tell they are being raised well. I saw Diana’s spirit in all this. Kudos to the Princess of Wales
Catherine may have come from an ordinary British familly, but she is an extraordinary woman. Extraordinary Wife, Mother, daughter, sister, daughter inlaw. Extraordinary royal doing the royal familly and her country proud ❤
What a blessing you ALL are to those in need, and an example to others. Your efforts will bring joy for so many families. God save the king, and may God bless you all.
Hello Kate how are you doing?
Wonderful initiative! Love seeing the kids during Christmas time.
This is amazing!! What a wonderful, caring family. The children are all so grounded. Fantastic family!!
I didn’t know about Baby Bank until I watched this video. Wales family is so dedicated. It’s wonderful that Wales kids inspire other kids all over the world.🥰🥰🥰
This is such a good example of helping people starting at a young age! Thank you!
God Bless em all. Look what a difference it made to Will when his mum took him to projects that helped out. These three children will remember when they are older and hopefully get involved themselves.
I got goosebumps. It is such a great and selfless thing to do and makes a huge impact. I'm in America and I just admire Prince William and Princess Catherine. I love how they are involving their children in initiatives like this one. They truly seem to be good people.
Bravo Catherine and children 👏👏👏❤️ lovely gesture and great for your children to realise some kids get very little!
Fabulous family. These children are so lovely and enjoy helping out and getting involved in doing things to benefit other less fortunate children. It is wonderful to see them mixing quite naturally with everyday people from all walks of life and what a credit they are . Prince William and Princess Catherine are great parents. ✨
