  • A Chat with Shanny, Founder of Raising Littles
    In 2018 Shanny, a professional in infant and childhood development, founded Raising Littles. Shanny was born and raised in the Yukon, and since becoming a mom herself, felt a great need for an additional resource for parents in the territory, and in the online community, as well. Raising Littles is a business for parents and caregivers looking for a developmental and holistic approach to attachment and parenting and this is delivered in a number of ways; via email consultations, phone, zoom, and in-person. Shanny was kind enough to sit down with us (twice, actually!) and chat about her background, her approach, and the link between attachment early on and your child's mental health in the future. She also has a couple of informative websites! Links below:

About Neurodivergent Nenny

From the publisher's feed

Hi, I'm Jenny (not Nenny, like the title suggests. I used to call myself "Nenny" before I could pronounce my "Js." And I just love alliteration in a title.
