RISE Inspired by RIE®. My name is Shannon Carr. I am a parent, early childhood specialist, parent-child group facilitator, and advocate for children and families.

RISE offers parent-child classes for children 6 weeks - 30 months that encourages babies to be authentic, attentive, and emotionally and socially supportive to one another while giving parents lifelong tools to foster these attributes. I have been in the field of Early Childhood for almost 25 years. In that time I have had the opportunity to be a part of many families' lives as carer of children,

teacher and mentor for adults, parent educator, child advocate, and parent (my favorite and most challenging role). Along the way I fell in love with a way of being with children called Educaring® which includes being with children in an authentic, trusting, respectful kind of way, without judgement. See rie.org or Janetlansbury.com for more information. I learned through my studies and experiences that the way we life early on, strongly impacts every other area of your being for the rest of your life. This is when I created RISE. RISE gives me the opportunity to provide strength to families during those most critical years. At RISE we offer monthly Network Meetings for all to attend, Parent-Child Groups for children 6 weeks - 30 months, and classes for expectant families. Please reach out to me anytime with any thoughts, questions, or ideas you may have. I love to connect and partner. Together we can make this world a better place for children and families.

Just returned for a fabulous, refueling weekend in Texas!! I spent time in Houston, Pasadena, and Sugarland!!
I was able to see my amazing RIE Practicum student in action, provided an intimate talk in a beautiful, relaxed space, spent a little time at The Seed Tree School, and ate so much good food. It may be awhile before I eat a taco again🌮
