Review for Nurturings (Attachment Parenting International), Bristol, TN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

API has been a phenomenal resource for me as a parent, socially, emotionally, educationally, and intellectually. The eight principles are based on the most up-to-date research on how to raise healthy, competent, and emotionally balanced children. Not only that, they have resources on how to stay sane as a parent! In addition to the online resources, API support groups have offered me the opportunity to spend time with other families who are committed to gentle, yet evidence-based, parenting. For almost 10 years now, I have spend time at least weekly, and often daily, with my AP friends, and it is them that I turn to when I feel frustrated as a parent. They always have ideas and reassurance. I can't imagine life without API.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

learning to be a better parent, and having a great source of ideas, research and resources to help me in my quest.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

increase fundraising and outreach efforts so more families can benefit.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

being part of a supportive community.

Ways to make it better...

More people were involved in API, so that I lived in a neighborhood overflowing with thoughtful parents.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
