Parenting while Working from Home
free Virtual Event
Saturday, February 27th, 2021
About the virtual event
As more parents work from home than ever before, there are unique challenges when it comes to meeting the demands of their job, helping their kids thrive, and finding even five minutes to take care of themselves.
We have been expected to figure out our children’s ever-changing education requirements, keep tabs on everyone’s mental and physical health, and keep the house in working order all while maintaining our careers.
It’s a lot!
Which is why we are offering a free virtual parenting event that offers inspiration and support to fellow work from home parents.
EVENT SPEAKERS
We have an exciting line-up of experts who are ready to discuss the challenges and adventures of Parenting while Working from Home. Get actionable advice and helpful tips that you and your household can begin implementing right away in order to find a better balance and more enjoyment in everyday life!
