As a parent or caregiver, it’s important to be able to answer our kid’s tough questions AND start the tough conversations.

Open conversations and awareness can help prevent underage drinking.

We love a good twist: in a movie plot, on scenic roadways, pretzels, gymnastic routines and so many more, but not in the seat belt or car seat’s harness. Make sure the webbing is flat and not twisted.

Sleep related suffocation remains a leading cause of death for babies under one year old, but simple steps can help protect infants during sleep.

Always place your baby on their back in a safety approved crib with a firm mattress and no loose bedding or soft objects. Keeping the sleep space clear is one of the most effective ways to reduce risk and create a safer sleep environment for your baby.

Kids don’t always say “I’m struggling.”

Sometimes it looks like:
• Withdrawing from family or friends
• Changes in mood or behavior
• Losing interest in things they used to love

Trust your instincts-you know your child best.

Start with a simple conversation:
“Hey, I’ve noticed things seem a little different. Want to talk?”
