The 4-step welcome

Greet a visitor at the door

Progress0 of 4 steps

  1. 👀Look at them

    Eye contact says 'I see you' more than words do.

  2. 😊Smile and say hello

    Use their name if you know it: 'Hi Grandma!'

  3. 🚪Open the door wide

    Step back so they have room to come inside.

  4. 🧥Offer to take their coat

    'Can I hang up your coat?' — small, kind, grown-up.
