When the babies are born the mother picks them up with her mouth and carries them to the river or other body of water. When she gets to the river she will release her young and hope for the best.

Some species like the Salty take parental care a step higher. Salties will crack open the unhatched eggs with their teeth, releasing the babies. They will also guard the babies for three or so months.

no they desert them at birth and let fate decide what happens
The parental care of an amphibian is very short lived. Most amphibians that lay their eggs in water leave them unattended. Species that deposit their eggs on land however commonly have a parent that guards the egg to prevent predators from stealing them. Many species of frogs show spectacular forms of parental care. An example is the male Darwin's frog in Chile that picks up the eggs deposited on the ground by its partner and carries them in his vocal sac until they develop into adults.

It depends on the species, but there are many species of frog that provide parental care to their tadpoles. Conversely, there are many species of frog that provide no care beyond laying the eggs.
