"How do we then manage life at home with our children when we have to work, have to help our kids with schooling, have to keep our young ones engaged and have to work with all ages through their challenges of boredom, withdrawal from friends and arguments for excessive screen time?" 

In this Community Conversation, Rachel Wigglesworth will offers support and a time to reflect and discuss shifting needs and demands in parenting during these unprecedented times. "The reality of social distancing and isolation is setting in. How is your family faring? What is really going on inside your home?...I invite you to reach out. Share your successes and your challenges...Know that above all else, strong relationships matter." ~ an excerpt from Rachel's blog.

Rachel has a master’s degree in Family Education with a Teaching Certificate in Parent Education from the University of Minnesota. She works as a parent educator and parent coach, and is the founder of Growing Great Families. Rachel worked as a doula for over 10 years supporting women and families through childbirth and labor, and during the prenatal and postpartum period.
