Christine will be the first to tell you that there are many excellent books, videos, podcasts, and other resources available to help and support parents.

That framework is: Let, Lift, & Listen. Three nurturing practices that might sound simple but can be challenging for anyone to implement on even his or her best days.

•  'Listen' to them with open ears, hearts, and minds.
