Meet the heli-grandparents: they’re obsessed with their grandkids — and they don’t care who calls them out

Meet the heli-grandparents: they’re obsessed with their grandkids — and they don’t care who calls them out

Kami Walker has a lot to get done every morning before sending her children off to school — including responding to her mother’s check-in texts, which arrive like clockwork, amid the peak A.M. rush in her Long Island household.

Some busy moms might get annoyed by the idea of a helicopter grandparent. Walker, herself a self-described helicopter mom, doesn’t mind at all. In fact, she told The Post, the more the merrier.

“When I think about helicopter parenting, I consider it to be just one part of my and my mom’s style of attachment parenting,” said Walker, who lives in Port Washington with her husband and two kids. “You have to hover in your children’s lives at an appropriate level for them to be successful and for them to feel nurtured.”

In fact, it’s not just the odd text about snow boots connecting Walker to her mother, who lives in Upper Manhattan — the two work together, even if mom mostly works remotely, to juggle parenting responsibilities.

“[She’s] up on all my kids’ school projects, she asks what the pediatrician says after every appointment, and she buys all of my son’s clothes — but this doesn’t bother me,” said Walker, a business owner who provides online support for families hosting au pairs.
