The Balancing Act: Family Well-Being, Policies and more

Join us in our latest podcast episode, "The Balancing Act: Family Well-Being, Policies, and More," where we embark on a profoundly engaging journey into child development and mental health.  We brought three guests together to talk about all it takes for caregivers and parents to juggle caring for their little ones and what policies could be put in place to support them.  Join Eva Rivera and Angela, both Policy Directors at The Children's Partnership and Edith, who shares what it was like navigating her daughter's anxiety and ensuring she got the support she needed. In this episode, we cover critical topics: [10:54] Kids are Absorbing Everything [15:37] Self-Care for Parents: Why Your Well-being Matters to Your Little Ones [19:47] Understanding Policy and How It Impacts Child & Family Well-Being and how to improve them [30:23] Combating Burnout: Strategies for Caregivers Expect a heartfelt, informative, and transformative conversation that goes beyond the surface, tackling the everyday challenges and joys of raising children. We delve into the importance of creating a nurturing environment, how parents can manage their stress to support their children better, and the role of societal policies in shaping childhood experiences. Take advantage of this opportunity to gain valuable insights and be part of a discussion that could change how you think about parenting and child care.  Want to suggest a topic or be a guest?
