The 7 Pillars Explained

We are launching ParentingMoves, a national social media campaign that gives parents simple, evidence-backed micro-actions they can take every day to support their child's development. Every post is written to be clear, grounded in peer-reviewed research, and designed to empower — not overwhelm.

What it Covers

Daily posts rotate across seven pillars:

​Launching with ages 0–3. Expanding to older ages over time.

Connection   

Hugs, eye contact, closeness — feeling connected anchors development

Learning   

Talk, count, notice — everyday words build the skills that help them learn

Play   

Follow their lead — play is how little brains grow

Sleep   

Same steps, same order, every night — routines tell their body it’s safe to sleep

Emotions.png

Emotions   

Name big feelings, stay close — your calm helps them find theirs

Safe sleep, safe spaces — feeling secure frees them to explore and grow

Take care of you — your wellbeing is part of their development

Why this matters

Family support programs are the frontline. Your trusted relationship with parents is the strongest asset we have. ParentingMoves reinforces your work by giving you daily, evidence‑backed micro‑actions that strengthen family connection, learning, and safety.

Join the Pilot!

We’ll be testing ParentingMoves with 20 family support programs across the country. Help shape our national campaign. The lift is intentionally light because we know you are stretched. A few minutes a day to share a post.

What the Pilot Involves

Over six weeks, your program will:

  • Get the package described above, free of charge.

  • Share the day's post to your Instagram or Facebook — one tap, no caption needed (or use ours).

  • Point families to follow @tinymoves.

  • Tag us or use your QR code so we can measure the reach you generate.

  • Ask one staff member to participate in a focus group at the end of the pilot

​Interested? Sign up for our pilot (or just learn more) !
