Being a parent or carer can be wonderful, but it comes with its challenges!

And the summer holidays and celebrations can be a wonderful time of the year spent with family and friends, enjoying beautiful summer weather, but can
also be a very stressful time juggling our parenting and work commitments.

These sessions will aim to explore helpful strategies for balancing our caring and work responsibilities, setting appropriate boundaries and giving ourselves
permission to do what we need to do to care for ourselves and others.

NOTE: These parenting sessions are general in nature, and seek to create an environment where parents are learning from one another. We aim to equip parents with transferrable knowledge and skills.

Registrations close at 4.00 p.m. the day before the first session.

Priority for this program will be given to residents in Frankston & Bayside Peninsula, Greater Dandenong, Casey and Cardinia areas.
