With Valentine’s week here, love is in the air—but the deepest, most lasting love is the one we build with our children every day. In this episode, we’re exploring how everyday moments of connection shape your child’s emotional well-being, strengthen attachment, and build the foundation for their future relationships. From the first time your baby grasps your finger to the moments your teenager seeks comfort after a tough day, these interactions are more than just sweet memories—they’re essential for secure attachment and healthy development. We’ll dive into the science behind connection, including the power of “serve and return” interactions, and discuss practical ways to strengthen bonds with your child—even in the midst of busy schedules and distractions. Join me as we unpack the simple but profound ways you can create lasting emotional security for your children and why, at the heart of parenting, connection is the key to raising confident, resilient kids.
