My daughter is 3 and recently the doctor gave us an inhaler with a spacer for her. The doctor was great at showing us how to use it and had my daughter and I singing ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’ while the mask was on. This helped to distract her and made her start breathing naturally, and in good time. The dr said to try and do it if she ever starts having an asthma attack to help her to stay calm

That makes a refreshing change and must have done much for your confidence too.
