We agree, Mona Delahooke, Ph.D.!
Lots of our kiddos have vulnerable nervous systems - "planned ignoring" can be harmful for kids with neurodiversity, underlying anxiety, or developmental trauma, just to name a few...
We love Mona's first edition, I can't wait to read the 2nd!

How we see people changes us and our relationships.
Especially when they're our kids.

You have a few more days to contribute to the cookie drive!

When a young teen approached us with a sweet idea to help kids & families make cookies who might not get to this year, how could we resist?

Lakeview and Nurturing Village are partnering together to collect cookie mixes, small bottles of oil, frosting, and sprinkles for families facing food insecurity. Our team will assemble the kits, all you need to do is drop off supplies!

We are accepting donations now through December 5th! Help us spread sweetness and kindness this holiday season!
