Inspired by RIE®. My name is Shannon Carr. I am a parent, early childhood specialist, parent-child group facilitator, and advocate for children and families.

RISE offers parent-child classes for children 6 weeks - 30 months that encourages babies to be authentic, attentive, and emotionally and socially supportive to one another while giving parents lifelong tools to foster these attributes. I have been in the field of Early Childhood for almost 25 years. In that time I have had the opportunity to be a part of many families' lives as carer of children, teacher and mentor for adults, parent educator, child advocate, and parent (my favorite and most challenging role). Along the way I fell in love with a way of being with children called Educaring® which includes being with children in an authentic, trusting, respectful kind of way, without judgement. See rie.org or Janetlansbury.com for more information. I learned through my studies and experiences that the way we life early on, strongly impacts every other area of your being for the rest of your life. This is when I created RISE. RISE gives me the opportunity to provide strength to families during those most critical years. At RISE we offer monthly Network Meetings for all to attend, Parent-Child Groups for children 6 weeks - 30 months, and classes for expectant families. Please reach out to me anytime with any thoughts, questions, or ideas you may have. I love to connect and partner. Together we can make this world a better place for children and families.

I was the banana lady (thanks for the idea Amanda) this weekend handing out bananas from my borrowed wagon (thanks Becky) to random strangers with littles.

I was promoting my new space and expanded list of classes.

Most families were pleasantly surprised to be offered a banana among all the sweets and some grade school aged children also ran by excitedly asking for bananas.

If you are expecting and/or have an infant or toddler in your life, check out classes at risechild.com/prenatal-parenting.

I am excited to share that recently opened a new space hosting prenatal and infant-toddler parenting classes.

Prenatal classes dive into building a healthy relationship for parents and between the parent and child from the start. We discuss self-care, healthy boundaries, dive into attachment, creating a movement rich environment and support the fostering self-confidence for all, empathy, trust, and respect.

I have trial classes available next month. Please share and/or sign-up to attend.
Classes are located in Crestwood, MO
