I'm Anne, the person behind @paranneting. I started Paranneting as a means to create a resourceful community for parents, caregivers, and educators alike. Our community is built upon sharing ideas and resources, and it is driven by the desire to help others and connect over a shared goal: to provide the best environment for the children in our care to grow and learn. I am eager to continue working with families and their children, helping to ease their stress and mitigate (at least!) some of the challenges that come along with taking care of growing humans.
