Welcome!

Watch this quick explanation of the discoveries of parenting science.

Build the skills for a good life.

Every year, serious psychological distress among young adults has been rising. 70% of teens say that "anxiety and depression is a major problem" among their peers.

But, the most effective protection for kids is a connected relationship with a parent or caregiver. The Postcards show you how to create this kind of relationship. Help your child build:

  • Emotional intelligence
  • Social skills
  • Resilience
  • Executive functioning
  • Positive mindset

Personalized for your family

Every family is unique, and we tailor your Postcards for you. Take this survey to find out your own Parenting Persona, and where you land on the two key dimensions of Connection and Empowerment.

Thanks so much for your postcards for parents. This morning’s read on families leaning in really moved me. I’m on round two of raising a mini family but have SO much to learn. Insights within the postcards are really helpful.

It’s so refreshing to see parenting being approached from an emotional perspective in a bitesize way. (Because what parent has time to read parenting books?!)
