We recently held a beautiful baby shower at our Incarnate Word Head Start location, celebrating several new and expectant mothers! The event included presentations, games, and gifts, and was a true celebration of life. Expectant moms can also enroll in our Head Start program to begin receiving services and information related to early childhood development. Once the baby is born, they are automatically enrolled in the program as well!

Life's biggest lessons often start with seemingly small gestures in childhood. Teaching children that it is expected to only engage in touch that is comfortable for them is essential for their understanding of their own power, value, and dignity. #consent #childhoodwellbeing #earlychildhoodmentalhealth #infantmentalhealth
The Fourth of July is often a day when we celebrate with family and friends. There are moments when they can’t wait to wrap their arms around toddlers for a big "hello" bear hug. Consent is for everyone. Children should have a choice so it’s clear that they get to decide what works for them. Read more: https://bit.ly/3Xy156u

To all new dads out there, listen up. Bonding with your baby is crucial. It’s not just the mom’s job. Your child needs and wants you. Don't be intimidated by a baby's cuteness. Bonding doesn't just magically happen. - Spend time with them - Hold them & make silly faces - Be present, even when you're not bonding Your baby needs to know they can count on you. And as for you dads who didn't get enough bonding time with your own dads: - Break the cycle - Embrace fatherhood - Give your child the best gift you can give: your time Not to mention, you'll never forget the first time your baby locks eyes with you. So, go bond with your child, dads.

I am increasingly convinced the #1 problem in fatherhood today Is that dads are simply too busy. It's easy to get bogged down by saying "yes" too much. Before you know it, you're overburdened by obligation & commitment. Your life is full of things that don't actually serve your family's: → Vision. → Mission. → Calling. → Values. And when your life starts to look this way What gets cut out first? Things that can't be rushed or hurried. And what can't be rushed or hurried? Being intentional & present with your kids. Dads, You can live a full, intentional, fulfilling life And still be unhurried. It's all about what you give your time to. I challenge you to do an audit of your time this week. → Are you giving yourself to things that make you & your family better? → Are there things that need to get cut out? → Are there things that you've been neglecting that need more time? Take one small action today to be more intentional with your time. #burnuntamed

LISTEN UP! Fatherhood isn’t just a fancy title. It’s a full-time, down-in-the-trenches RESPONSIBILITY. As fathers, we become a boy's first superhero and a girl's first heartthrob. Our role is critical to a child’s growth and development. A real dad is always vigilant, keeping his kids safe and sound. He creates an environment where they thrive physically and mentally. KIDS NEED THAT. Fatherhood isn’t about just making babies. That’s biology. REAL fatherhood is about stepping up, taking charge, and moving beyond childish games. It's a commitment and a SACRIFICE. Here’s the deal: siring kids isn't fatherhood. ANYONE can be a donor. But being a father? That takes heart, grit, and guts. It's heartbreaking to see dads MIA while their kids grow up. So hear me out: Dear Fathers, don’t rob your kids of your presence. Fatherhood is SERVITUDE to your family. Show up, step up, and make lasting memories. 🛠️👨👧👦 #TrueDad #BePresent #FatherhoodMatters

All of our work starts with reflecting and deciding on your core values that you want to bring into parenthood. Parenthood can force a realignment of your priorities and you will be best served when those are in alignment with you inner compass.#ParentalLeavePlaybook

📢 CALLING ALL DADS (including stepdads, foster dads, dads-to-be, and father figures) 📢 Navigating the twists and turns of fatherhood can be both exhilarating and daunting, often leaving us seeking guidance and community amidst the uncertainty. Unfortunately, the “manosphere” can sometimes foster toxic ideals of stoicism and emotional detachment. That’s why I think it is incredibly important to find people championing emotional intelligence, holistic development, and camaraderie amidst the noise. I couldn’t be prouder of my friend, Collier Roberts, for doing just that Collier recently launched Elite Dads Weekly, a newsletter crafted to provide fathers with curated wisdom, fostering support, understanding, and actionable insights. It’s a platform designed to empower dads to embrace new perspectives, quell overthinking, and take meaningful action in their journey through fatherhood. If you resonate with this mission, I encourage you to subscribe via the link below, or pass it along to someone who might benefit. https://lnkd.in/e8HqSvwQ #newsletter #fatherhood #development #community
