9 Financial Planning “Baby Steps” to Consider When Starting a Family

When you become a parent (or a grandparent), life changes overnight—and so do your priorities.

To set your family up for success and allay financial fears, we recommend you revisit your financial plan by:

• Designating an emergency fund
• Assigning powers of attorney
• Reassessing your insurance policies
• Deciding how to fund your child’s education
• Updating your healthcare plan
• Considering a savings account for childcare expenses
• Reassessing your retirement contributions
• Analyzing how the Child Tax Credit may affect your tax liability
• Creating or updating your estate plan

Starting a family is an exciting time and we wish you much happiness!
