We chose cultivating parents as our name because these words express what we desire to accomplish.
According to the dictionary . . .
Cultivate :
to seek to become familiar with, give one's attention to
to improve by care, training or study, to prepare
to promote development or growth
Parent:
a protector or guardian
a human in relationship to their offspring
a cause or source
By giving our attention and sharing our experience with parents, we hope to support their growth and their family's relationships..
