Dear parents…you’re doing enough.

This time of year can make us all feel like we should be doing more - more traditions, more tasks, more “perfect” moments. But our CK Public Health nurses want you to hear this loud and clear:

❤️ You’re doing great.
❤️ You’re love is enough.
❤️ You don’t need to do it all.

You’ve got this and we’re here cheering you on!

Share this video with a parent that needs to hear these kind words 💕
