In addition to our multiple-session parenting series, we provide single session presentations to community groups on a variety of parenting topics such as infant sleep, bedtime battles, tantrum taming, child temperament, and guidance and discipline.

Parent Coaching – Individual Guidance, Education and Support
We provide brief face-to face parent coaching sessions to parents and caregivers of children age birth to twelve years. Coaching sessions typically consist of a question and answer period where a parent may discuss, in a one-to-one meeting with a parenting coach, questions or concerns relating to parenting, child development, family life etc. In situations where the 30 minute time allotment is insufficient we can offer further support via our Helpline or E-Support service.
