Opportunities to Flourish
As a parent, educator, or anyone who is passionate about children’s growth and development, we all want to provide the best opportunities for them to flourish. With that in mind, I have created this blog to share my knowledge and experiences on various ways to help children thrive.
My name is Rashmi Babtiwale. I play many roles in my life – wife to a caring and loving individual, mother to a spunky 8 year old, a full-time professional working in tech industry and a woman who is just trying to realize her dreams! In my day-to-day life I always find myself juggling between these roles doing constant trade-offs. I think that being a mother and providing my best self for my child’s all round development is my most important role and the one that I am passionate about. I have always been fascinated by the ways in which children learn and grow, and as I became a mother I started studying and researching different approaches to promoting their development.
I am no expert. However, through this blog, I hope to share my insights on what I have learned on the topics of parenting, children’s psychology and their all round development. I will be discussing various topics related to child development, their social and emotional learning, cognitive development, physical health, getting them ready for today’s world, instilling good habits etc.
In addition, I will provide practical tips and strategies for parents, educators, and caregivers to help them create a nurturing environment for children to thrive. Whether it’s through play-based learning, outdoor activities, or creative expression, I believe that every child has the potential to flourish and reach their full potential.
I hope you will find this blog informative and helpful in your journey to support children’s growth and development. Thank you for joining me on this exciting adventure!
