As an education consultant specialising in SEND, teaching, and learning, I found the Hearts We Grow course to be a thoughtful and valuable resource for parents and educators alike. The course beautifully combines modern child development understanding with Islamic principles of tarbiyah, while promoting emotional connection, gentle guidance, and healthy child development in a practical way. I also particularly appreciated the complementary materials, including the short poem books and the educational charts on healthy eating and the five key elements of parenting, which make learning engaging and accessible for families and young children.
Hearts We Grow is a thoughtful and comprehensive parenting guide that beautifully blends modern child development research with Islamic values of tarbiyah. It covers essential areas such as emotional connection, mindful parenting, boundaries with love, nutrition, play, and caregiver wellbeing in a practical and accessible way.
A key strength of Hearts We Grow is its emphasis on the early years, which both research and Islamic teachings highlight as the most formative stage of a child’s life. Studies show that around 80% of brain growth happens by age 3, and about 90% of brain development occurs by age 5. During this time, early attachment, emotional safety, routines, language exposure, and parent-child interaction play a critical role in shaping a child’s future behavior, learning, and emotional regulation.
This aligns closely with the Islamic tarbiyah approach, where the early years are focused on love, mercy, play, and building a strong emotional bond.
The book reflects this beautifully by encouraging connection before correction, empathy, and gentle guidance, inspired by the Prophetic example of kindness toward children. With practical tools like reflection exercises, routines, and emotion coaching, it offers parents clear ways to apply these principles in everyday life.
Overall, Hearts We Grow is a valuable resource for parents and caregivers who want to raise emotionally secure, confident, and spiritually grounded children in a balanced and nurturing way.
Hearts We Grow is truly one of the most beautiful and practical parenting books and courses I have come across. The book gives you a solid foundation of wisdom and the course brings it all to life in the most warm and practical way. Whether you read the book or join the course — or both — it is an experience every parent needs. Highly recommended for any parent who wants to raise their children with love, intention, and purpose!
