Your child’s first experience of love comes from you. ❤️

The way you speak to them, the way you hold space for their feelings, the way you show up in the hard moments—it all becomes the foundation for how they’ll expect to be loved.

And no, you don’t have to get it right every time. What matters most is that they feel seen, heard, and valued. That’s the kind of love that lasts a lifetime. 💛

How can we support you??

.

Happy Monday!

We all go through things and sometimes we just need a little support but don’t know how to ask.

Today’s task is to reach out to someone to ask how you can support them.

It could be as simple has being there for them while they vent or simply reminding them they have support can go along way❤️
