Healthy Mind

It is not easy to parent during Terrible Twos and Threes or the teen years. Each and every baby and child is a different person, with different needs, even among siblings or identical twins.
There are a lot of resources that you can refer to on parenting strategies to bring up an emotionally resilient child.

Helping children build a strong self-esteem is very important for their happiness and success in many ways. Connecting with your children about their emotional needs and understanding their issues through their eyes will go a long way in reducing conflicts with them.

Children’s Product Recalls

On occasion children’s products such as cribs and toys are recalled due to potential hazards or defects. It is important to pay close attention to recalled consumer goods to protect your child. We recommend you visit the following sites as well as other relevant sites frequently to ensure that the products your child is using have not been recalled.

These recalled products still may show up without your knowledge as hand-me-downs, from garage sales or be right there in your basement.

Car Seat Recommendations

Proper use of a car seat is very important in keeping your child safe. With so many different types and brands of car seats on the market today, understanding how to use them correctly can be overwhelming for parents. I have added a link to the AAP’s Car seat Safety page to help guide you in choosing the best car seat that is most appropriate for your child’s safety.

Always remember that you can go to your local Fire Station to verify the proper installation of your baby’s car seat.
