Parenting is both incredibly rewarding and incredibly tough—and there’s no manual. Every family faces ups and downs, and it’s easy to feel discouraged by challenges or perceived “failures.” But you’re not alone. We’re here to support you through every step of your parenting journey.

Land Acknowledgment

This is Treaty 6 territory, land of the Nêhiyawak, Anihšināpē, Nakota and Dakota peoples and homeland of the Métis. Treaties were meant to serve as a framework for living together and sharing this land, but colonial policies and systems favoured settlers to the detriment of Indigenous people. These systems persist. As a descendant of settlers and a beneficiary of colonial systems, I am responsible for calling out and working against these disparities. I recognize the racism within me, and continue to re-educate myself. I'm grateful for the patience, learnings, and wisdom I've received from Indigenous friends, colleagues, and community leaders.
