ParentED Fest was born from a personal journey, one that began with two parents, Diana and Bogdan Bălan, standing at a crossroads, searching for guidance in a world full of noise, opinions, and conflicting advice about raising children. They soon realized that the need for trustworthy, research-based information, shared with empathy and aligned with real family values, was not unique to them. It was a collective need, a reflection of a society longing for connection, understanding, and a gentler way to grow together.
