Lori Whitney Oberbroeckling

As a working mom with a full-time career, business, 4 children, and a slew of activities, I  was definitely looking forward today’s conversation with my guest, Ann McKitrick.

A frequent conference speaker, she's a parenting coach and early childhood specialist with 30 years of experience in higher education. Ann also provides online professional development for thousands of childcare professionals each year through her online business, Texas Child Care Training.


Today we dig into maintaining connection with your children even if you are a working parent.


Today we discuss… 


  • Childcare choices and how childcare can help increase your connection with your child
  • Managing meltdowns at pick-up or the end of the day
  • The importance of transitions for parents so they can show up the way they want for their children
  • Common challenges that working parents face
  • What can we do to maintain balance even as a working parent
