We’re Evanston moms and lifelong friends with backgrounds in early childhood development. As researchers and practitioners, we’ve spent the last 15 years engaged in a range of work to support families - from large scale research studies to family therapy to school startup. In the last 5 years, we both became parents. A combination of social support and knowledge in child development has helped us navigate the challenges and joys of the early childhood years. We hope ParentConnect will organically provide this experience for other families.
