Hi! I'm Katrena.
You're in the right place if you:
Since you're here, you're probably a grandparent raising young grandchildren.
My specialty, given to me by God, is raising my twin granddaughters from birth.
- Feel like you are always yelling or being the parent
- Feel like you don’t have that grandparent connection like other grandparents have
- Are sick of hearing “I’m bored”
- Are tired of feeling tired everyday or like parenting is a job
That's why I created Grandparents Called To Parent. I wanted to create a space where grandparents could come together to share their experiences, learn from each other, and find support.
I believe that raising your grandchildren can be a rewarding and positive experience, and I'm here to help you make that happen.
On this website, you'll find resources, tips, and a community of other grandparents who are also raising their grandchildren. We are here to help you every step of the way. Let's get started!

THE FINANCIAL TRUTH:
Becoming the primary caregivers of our grandchildren brought unexpected financial strain, but I learned how to boost our income and provide for our family without stress.
"I got to work as an entrepreneur and began securing streams of income for our family. My goal is 7 streams and I am almost there. It is never too late to start or add."

You're already a pro at child-rearing. How about starting a small child care group? It's a win-win: your grandkids get playmates, and you earn a little extra on the side.
If you're online-savvy or even if you're just curious, consider dabbling in affiliate marketing. Promote products you genuinely love, and earn a commission for every sale made through your recommendation. It's flexible and can be done in your own time.
Think about those hobbies you've always cherished. Whether it's crafting beautiful items or whipping up homemade goodies, consider selling them. They might just be the next big hit in your community or among your circle.

All you have to do is connect with me on facebook. Yes pop into my DMs (that’s messenger…you are going to have to know some of this tech lingo when raising grandchildren), and I will share how I made that happen for me, and how we can make that happen for you.
