Parenting Tips
How do we create the best fit between parent and child? To begin with, we start by understanding the current research on child development, including what to expect from our child at each stage and how to build on their innate strengths. Next, we combine that knowledge with a clear understanding of who we are as unique individuals so that we can also build on our strengths as parents. At first, this may sound like a huge undertaking, or perhaps even one you believe is too late to try. However, it’s important to remember that it’s never too late in your parenting journey. Nurture yourself with the information and tools I have curated for you. Your relationship is worth the work!
