The royal-mum-of-three was in Copenhagen for her two-day working visit with her Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood, which she launched last June. After she met with parents and their babies at the Børnemuseet, the Children's Museum in Frederiksberg, she joked that she was feeling "very broody" and that her husband is often "worried" about her working with young children.
