BONUS | Am I still a good mother if I don't want to be a stay-at-home-mom?
VERY GOOD ENOUGH
Very good is a moving target, but we think you can be a very good (enough) parent if you love your kids and try hard. Join mother of three Jess Hover and preschool teacher Layne Deyling Cherland as we tackle how to understand toddler behavior from THEIR perspective, how to build a non-judgmental community of moms, how to repair our mistakes and have healthy relationships with our partners/kids/selves, plus so much more of what we call "people stuff"!
We're here to take care of the people who take care of children - moms, dads and everyone else!
