Now isn’t the time you planned to be a parent, but here you are. Sometimes, life’s biggest challenges also offer the most significant rewards. If you choose to parent, you may be surprised at the many services and resources available. Let us show you what’s possible.
Is Parenting Right for Me?
Parenting is both challenging and beautiful. As you consider parenting, start by asking yourself some essential questions. Once you’ve answered these, we can examine your situation and determine how to create a parenting plan.
- Do I have a desire to parent?
- Will my partner or my parents support me financially and emotionally?
- Where will my child and I live?
- Can I continue my education or my career if I parent?
- Is childcare available?
- How will I get health insurance?
- How can I afford baby essentials like a car seat, crib, clothes, etc.?
The answers to these questions will help you assess your parenting needs. We’re here to help.
