What Makes a Good Mom? (It’s Not Perfection)

Good parenting isn’t about having a perfect life, a perfect home, or endless patience. It’s for the most part learning, adapting, prioritizing someone else’s needs, resilience, emotional maturity, and self-awareness. It’s a hard 24/7 job with lots of worries and endless joy. At least that’s for me.

Hi, I'm Iva — mom, hobby herbalist, and the voice behind Toddler in Action. I hold a Master's in Economics and worked as a tax advisor. I walked away from my corporate career to stay home with my child — and that one decision changed everything: I've started a blog, homeschooled, co-founded Livingston Global Academy with my husband, and learned to heal my kid naturally when medication wasn't an option. I share our first-hand experience as we go — the real life - messy, meaningful, and everything in between.
