Hi there! I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a momma in my 30s, navigating the beautiful, messy, hilarious, and humbling journey of parenthood—one day at a time. Becoming a parent has changed me in ways I never expected. Truthfully, my child has been one of my greatest teachers. From tantrums to tender moments, this little human has taught me so much—especially about kindness, patience, and unconditional love.
I created Parenting Kindly as a space for all of us figuring it out as we go. Whether you’re a first-time parent, expecting, or deep in the chaos of toddlerhood (or teenhood!), you’re welcome here.
What You’ll Find Here
On this site, we’ll share real talk about parenting—the joys, the struggles, and everything in between. You’ll find:
- Tips for gentle, respectful parenting
- Honest stories and lessons from my own experience
- Ideas for creating deeper connections with your kids
- Resources, product finds, and tools that actually help
- A reminder that you’re not alone on this journey
This isn’t about perfection—it’s about showing up with love, learning as we go, and choosing kindness even when it’s hard.
Why “Parenting Kindly”?
Because in a world that often rushes us, judges us, or pressures us to be “perfect,” I believe in slowing down. In leading with empathy. In parenting kindly—ourselves included.
So grab a cup of coffee (or reheat it for the third time), and stay awhile. Let’s grow, share, and support each other through the incredible ride of raising little humans.
With love,
Kathleen
