As parents, we want to protect our children and keep them healthy! Sometimes, helping our children understand why we do something is just as important as helping them get through it.

We don't have to make flu season scary. We can empower our children with the knowledge and skills to take an active role in their health.

Save this post as a reminder for your family, and share it with another parent!

Preparation doesn’t create anxiety... fear of the unknown does.

Medical experiences can be scary, unfamiliar, and overwhelming. Fear can grow during these new, unexpected situations. Thoughtful preparation can give anxiety somewhere to go.

Not sure what to say before your child’s procedure? A Child Life Specialist can help you prepare for the conversation and the experience so you can best support your child in the ways they need.

When someone we love enters hospice, it can be difficult to know what to say, especially to a child.

You don’t have to have all the answers. Children often benefit from simple, honest, and age-appropriate explanations.

If your family is navigating hospice or grief, a Child Life Specialist can help you find developmentally appropriate ways to talk with and support your child. Child Life services can help families prepare and support children through life's biggest stressors, including serious illness, hospice, visits with sick loved ones, and grief.

Behind every statistic is a real child who may be navigating fear, stress, or big emotions.

Child Life Specialists can help children cope with challenging experiences by providing developmentally appropriate education, emotional support, coping strategies, and opportunities for play and self-expression.

Supporting a child’s mental and emotional well-being is an essential part of helping them feel safe, understood, and empowered during difficult times.

When a parent receives a cancer diagnosis, there is so much to navigate. While adults are trying to make sense of everything, children are processing, too.

A child's questions don't have to be answered perfectly. It’s okay to say, “I don’t know, but we can figure it out together.” Allow them to share worries and questions so they don’t have to wonder alone. Their questions need to be answered honestly, simply, and in a way they can understand.

If your family is navigating cancer and you're not sure how best to support your child, a Child Life Specialist at Hearts Connected can help you figure out what to say and how to say it.

A sibling doesn’t need to be “the easy one” when things are challenging.

They need space to have their own experience and process the events too.

When one child is going through something hard, the whole family feels the impact. Child Life support can help siblings feel seen and supported, too!
