Parenting Programs
Just as for Parenting Workshops, we also offer a range of programs to support and inform parents, with a focus on developing useful parenting skills. Check in here regularly to see upcoming parenting programs.
BRINGING UP GREAT KIDS
Bringing Up Great Kids focuses on building positive and nurturing relationships between parents and their children. The program aims to support parents to review and enhance their patterns of communication with their children, to promote more respectful interactions and encourage the development of children’s positive self-identity.
SINGLE PARENTS SUPPORT GROUP
This weekly support group provides single parents and carers with a safe and inclusive space to learn about topics such as self-care, kids’ developmental milestones, family law, co-parenting and the like.
DADS TUNING INTO KIDS
This parenting program is a 7-week course for fathers and male carers that can provide you with helpful ways to improve the emotional connection between parent and child. This course will help you increase awareness of your child’s emotions, problem solve, and work through assisting your child to verbally label and manage their emotions. Â
