From expecting to empowered

Gentle, culturally rooted guidance for your first steps into parenthood.

Welcome to the village

Becoming a parent is both beautiful and bewildering. Everyone has advice, elders, relatives, the internet. But no one knows your child like you do.

In Africa, parenting wisdom is passed down like proverbs, full of love, sometimes mixed with pressure. The African Parent helps you keep what's timeless and let go of what's heavy, so you can raise your child with peace, not panic.
