Education

Education is an extremely important, and my favorite, piece in this process. In educating parents, you empower them. Empower them to make their own decisions, to advocate for themselves, to be confident in their plan and abilities. Education is important in helping parents brainstorm, create, and maintain the family values they want to have; it also empowers parents to become self-reliant as they seek out information to cope with various parenting issues. As Built to Birth mentions in their Instagram bio, “the more you learn the less you fear”.
