At 37, Julia gave birth to Phinneaus and Hazel, who both entered this world healthy. According to a source, the twins arrived at around 3 a.m. in November 2004 at a Los Angeles hospital. On the other hand, Henry was born on June 18, 2007.

On becoming a mother in her late 30s, Julia said her kids chose her to be her steward and shepherd in life when she was ready.
The mom of three fears at times that she will mess up as a parent, but she believes her kids came into her life at a moment when she was ready to be their mother. When her kids were young, the actress made sure to enjoy time with them, playfully tease, and share laughter.

She once hilariously revealed that Henry thought that when people were talking about the twins in their family, they were referring to him and his siblings instead of just Phinnaeus and Hazel.
Julia does not only have fun with her kids, but she does her best to protect them from the harms of fame. When the kids were younger, they knew that their mom was famous but never understood the true sense of that. Her kids would mostly see tabloid headlines when they were in stores, and the actress found such moments uncomfortable.
The tabloid headlines, which weren’t true, still hurt Julia’s feelings, especially when they speculated that her marriage was ending when she was happily married and raising her kids. Due to these challenges, Julia and Danny wanted to raise their kids out of the public eye, so they moved from Los Angeles.
Julia and Danny have a ranch in New Mexico, but they used to stay in Los Angeles, where they worked. However, as per a friend, the two didn’t want their kids to grow up in the show business culture of Los Angeles. The couple later moved to San Fransisco for their children. There, Phinnaeus, Henry, and Hazel were not viewed as movie star kids, and no one cared who their mother was.
As a protective mom, the “Ocean’s Eleven” star revealed in 2019 that she has banned her kids from using social media to limit their exposure to the pressures of the modern world.
The actress limited what they watch on TV and introduced family meetings. She took these steps because kids today easily have the world in their hands, and with its pressures and resources, it can be misused. Julia believes that as a parent, it’s her job to keep her kids off social media because they don’t need that at the moment.
Aside from protecting her kids, Julia makes sure to give them unconditional love so that they can handle challenges in today’s world. She also helps her kids navigate the issues of today.
When Hazel was going through a hard time and had lost hope, her mom took that opportunity to make her feel that she still had a voice. She took Hazel to her first Women’s March in Washington to show her that she had a place in this world where she could still uphold what she believed in.

According to the 56-year-old mother, Hazel is “one of a kind.” When the teen attended the 74th Cannes Film Festival in 2021 with her dad, she opted for a simple look and even shrugged off her mother’s suggestion to wear eyeliner. Hazel was just happy to participate in the event with her father.

However, Hazel also has a penchant for her mom’s prized possessions. Julia revealed that her daughter once went through her closet looking for a prom dress, and she tried out the actress’ black and white Valentino gown— the one she wore when she won an Academy Award in 2001. Hazel found the dress to be too big for her, but Julia remembers how stunning her daughter looked in it.

Julia has done a lot to love, protect, and be there for her kids. Still, she says there is no mastering mothering. As per the actress, the best way to navigate motherhood is to know that as a mom, you cannot do everything, so you should not feel ashamed or fearful about asking for help.

The “Pretty Woman” star admitted in 2022 that she felt lightheaded when her twins were about to go to college. She was also fascinated and excited for them because she never went to college, and her kids were going to experience it.
Julia always thinks that her kids look like her, but when her husband comes home from work, and she sees him, it dawns on her that her children look like Danny. The dad of three sometimes shares their kids’ photos online, which receive many comments from their fans.
