You can still join the group, or contact the Organizer(s) to learn moreWe are a group of parents who believe in the life-long benefits of Attachment Parenting, a term coined by pediatrician William Sears. http://www.askdrsears.com/html/10/T130300.a... We agree with API's mission to create strong, healthy emotional bonds between children and their parents. "API believes that Attachment Parenting (AP) practices fulfill a child's need for trust, empathy, and affection and will provide a foundation for a lifetime of healthy relationships." These practices include babywearing, breastfeeding, cosleeping, and gentle discipline, depending on the needs of each individual family.
This group is primarily for families living in Alexandria, Arlington, and the surrounding areas, but we welcome anyone who believes in Attachment Parenting and wants to make some new friends to join us!
