🌟 Funder Friday 🌟
We’re grateful to the R4 Foundation for their generous support of Safe Babies Tarrant County — helping us strengthen relationships that protect and nurture infants, toddlers, and families. 💛

Through Safe Babies, we work to reduce trauma, build resilience, and ensure every child in foster care experiences safe, connected relationships during their most critical early years.

Because it truly takes a village to raise a child — and with partners like R4 Foundation, we’re building that village together. 🫶

💡Did you know that Head Start was founded in 1965?
This year marks their 60th anniversary of providing high-quality education along with vital family resources and support beyond the classroom.

🌟The success of the Head Start model shows us that partnering with families, offering wraparound services rooted in community support and building long-lasting relationships are all essential factors in fostering children’s growth and development.

🌱 When it comes to healthy development, healthy relationships are at the root of everything! Children develop their motor, language, social-emotional, and cognitive skills through the relationships they have with the people around them.

Strong, nurturing relationships present endless learning opportunities for you and your little one. Every minute of play🛝, every back-and forth interaction↔️, every time you help soothe their cries🥹, every story you read together📚— every simple moment of connection strengthens your caregiver-child relationship and shapes your child’s development.

Remember that child development happens in the context of relationships and nurturing your relationship with your little one is the first step to healthy development 💞

On World Mental Health Day we want to shine a spotlight on the importance of Infant Mental Health 🌏🧠👶

🌱 Our first emotions, our primary relationships and our earliest experiences during infancy plant the seeds for the development of our mental health and wellness in childhood, adolescence and adulthood!

October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month 🩵🩷

The Statistics
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) states that approximately 10-20% of known pregnancies end in miscarriage and about 1 in 160 pregnancies end in stillbirth.

According to the CDC, in 2022, the infant mortality rate in the United States was 5.6 deaths per 1,000 live births.

The Stories
These statistics show that thousands of families are affected by pregnancy and infant loss each and every year, yet the complexity of their loss means that many of their stories go untold and the depth of their grief goes unseen.

This month we honor all the families who have experienced such a heavy loss and we offer the strength of community and connection to help those families carry the weight of their grief. Know that you are not alone. 🧡

Your baby's brain goes through so much change and development in the first 3 years! 👶🧠

Establishing routines 🔁 and building relationships 💞 are important first steps in supporting your baby's healthy brain development.

Even when you can't see the changes taking place in their little brain, every smile shared during bath time 🛁 and every hug that brings comfort before bedtime 💤 is strengthening neural connections and working wonders for their development!

🛠️💖 Building healthy relationships lays the foundation for a lifetime of healthy child development! But what does it actually mean to practice Early Relational Health?

Here are the 5 Pillars of ERH to help guide you in your practice:

🌟 Trusting Parents: Collaborating with parents and caregivers to do what is best for the child and family

🔎 Focusing on Simple, Everyday Interactions: Understanding that strong, nurturing relationships are formed in the daily routines shared between caregiver and child

🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 Finding a Village: Appreciating the value of working with your community, because humans weren’t meant to raise children alone

🤝 Meeting Families Where They Are: Providing tailored support and acknowledging the unique circumstances that shape the family’s strengths and needs

💞 Building Parallel Relationships: Recognizing that the bonds we experience impact the bonds we form with others
