TANGLED VINES COLLECTIVE
You are not too much to handle.
You are carrying too much alone.
A supportive community for caregivers navigating the in-between ~ grandfamilies,
kinship care, blended families, and those carrying more than most people can see.
The life you're living right now
You love these children with
everything you have.
And this is still one of the hardest things you have ever done.
Maybe you are raising grandchildren you did not plan to raise. Maybe you are navigating a family system complicated by addiction, trauma, mental health, or reintegration. Maybe you are the steady one in a blended family that does not always feel blended.
Whatever your version of this looks like ~ you are probably carrying some version of these:
The exhaustion that sleep does not fix
The guilt that follows you even when you are doing your best
The love that is completely real and the resentment that shows up alongside it
The fear that you will somehow get this wrong
The isolation of a situation most people in your life cannot fully understand
"Tangled Vines exists because carrying this alone is not a requirement. It is just what happens when there is nowhere to go.
What this place actually is
This is not about perfect caregiving.
It is about real caregiving ~ through complicated seasons,
with real tools, alongside people who genuinely understand.
It is about real caregiving ~ through complicated seasons, with real tools, alongside people who genuinely understand.
🌿
Emotional safety
For you and for the children you are raising. Because safety is the foundation of everything that comes after.
🫁
Nervous system steadiness
Yours first, because it leads everything else. Steadiness is not a personality trait ~ it is something you build.
🌱
Clear, compassionate limits
Limits that hold without disconnecting. Because your children need structure and they also need to feel safe with you.
🛡️
Prevention before crisis
Noticing the patterns before they escalate. Creating space to respond instead of react.
🔄
Repair and stabilisation
For the days when it already has. Because repair matters more than the prevention of every hard moment.
🤝
Real community
People who understand your specific kind of complex. No performing okayness. No shame. Just genuine belonging.
Here you can root, unwind, and grow forward ~ one steady step at a time.
Not because life becomes tidy. Because you stop carrying it completely alone.
FIND YOUR PATH
You do not have to pick the perfect tier.
Just pick the season you're in.
You do not have to pick the perfect tier. Just pick the season you're in.
