Hello

 Heyday Parenting began in 2017 in response to a lack of resources for new parents of a certain age. The staff is small, comprised of our managing editor and a myriad of guest writers who are keen to shed light on their own experiences with midlife parenting.

Whether starting out, starting again or starting over,  midlife parenting isn't new but is rapidly becoming more common every day. We intend to explore and celebrate this trend while addressing the specific concerns that older parents may have. 

Our mission is to empower older parents to embrace their new role while challenging assumptions about age; a factor that we believe that is largely irrelevant in the experience of raising kids. The joys and struggles of parenthood are pretty much the same regardless of age: Our bodies are exhausted, our minds are reeling and hearts are full.

Welcome to the club. We’re glad you’re here.
