Catholic Centered
Dedicated to The Holy Family
LoveEd is under the spiritual protection and guidance of The Holy Family.
Imprimatur By Most Reverend Joseph M. Siegel, D.D., STL
By implementing LoveEd in your home, be assured your child won’t be taught anything that is contrary to The Faith.
Professionally Produced Workbooks
We carefully created the workbooks to keep children engaged with the topic at hand and to help reinforce the information presented in the videos.
Each book includes 6 additional chapters to complete independent of the LoveEd videos.
The content in these workbooks are designed for children to access for future review.
Builds Confidence for Difficult Conversations
LoveEd gives you the knowledge and support to discuss what can be
uncomfortable topics, helping you and your child develop a closer, more
trusting relationship.

Parent Testimony
Checklist to Effectively Implement LoveEd
1. Purchase & receive books
Upon purchase, you'll be shipped the materials and you'll receive access to the video series. You can access the videos using the menu item "Video Access" when logged in under the email address you made the purchase with.
The cost includes the book and videos.
2. Choose the Adult
Ideally, the father will complete LoveEd with the boy and the mother with the daughter, keeping the sexes the same.
If a parent is not available to lead this, choose another trusted & respected adult in the child's life; such as a grandparent, aunt/uncle, or God parent.
It isn't ideal, but if an adult of the same sex is not available, choose an adult of the opposite sex respected by the child.
3. Find time
Either find a 2-hr window of time or find 5 smaller windows of time to view the videos and complete the corresponding pages of the workbook.
Instructions to access the online videos will be included with your book order.
4. Find a place
Look for someplace private and comfortable in your home. Minimize distractions.
It may mean finding a location outside of the home, such as a cafe, church, or library where internet access is available.
Instructions to access the online videos will be included with your book order.
5. Find a device to watch the videos
Access the videos on your tv, computer, or tablet. Phones can work as well, but just aren't ideal (due to size).
No matter what medium you choose, it is best to have good sound and video.
Instructions to access the online videos will be included with your book order.
6. Complete first 6 acts of the workbook
The workbook will guide you through the first 6 acts, incorporating the videos.
It's important to take your time completing the exercises and have meaningful conversations.
The parent guide will assist you in this step.
Instructions to access the online videos will be included with your book order.
7. Complete the workbook
The remaining chapters are to be completed over the next few weeks, if not sooner. NOTE: These chapters DO NOT coincide with any videos.
Your child is to check in with you for review of each lesson of the chapter. This is where your child may have questions and comments.
Your parent guide will assist you with these valuable conversations.
You are free to revisit the videos if necessary.
8. Continue the Conversation
LoveEd is meant to get the conversation started about love, relationships, and sexuality.
Your child needs you to be there to guide him/her, answer questions, and have meaningful conversations for years to come.
The parent-guide will help you do this in an age-appropriate way.
Want to still talk more about this before bringing LoveEd to your home, school, or church, then contact us. We'll assist however we can.
May God bless you and your child.
