Maintaining Connection with Your Children as a Working Parent with Ann McKitrick

Today Dr. Dan’s guest is Ann McKitrick, parenting expert, child development specialist, parent coach, teacher trainer, host of the Parenting in the First 3 Years Podcast, and the founder of Nurtured Noggins.  Today’s episode is all about working parents and their connection to their kids.  We all know there is nothing easy about being a working parent right? For new and young working parents, one of the biggest challenges is giving up our role as our child’s primary caretaker during the work week. Entrusting our young child into the care of somebody else Monday-Friday leads many parents to worry about their connection with their children. But, thankfully, there are many ways for working parents to develop, maintain, and strengthen their connection with their young children – even when spending hours apart each day during the work week.  Dr. Dan and Ann’s conversation is inspiring and insightful. It will reassure parents that they can create and nurture loving relationships.
