Meet our founder
As a neuroscientist and parent, I’ve learned that understanding emotions goes beyond research—it’s essential for parenting. After creating Curious Neuron to support child development, I realized that to truly help our children, we must first prioritize our own emotional well-being. Today, Curious Neuron offers science-backed tools and resources to help parents build emotionally intelligent homes, reduce stress, and nurture both their own and their children’s emotional growth.
