Parenting
Parenting can be one of the hardest jobs, and from time to time most parents and carers could do with some additional help and support.
There are a number of parenting courses available to families in York to help better equip parents and carers to deal with parenting issues.
Parenting courses can help;
- ease the transition to parenthood
- provide parents with effective parenting strategies
- promote child development
- manage common child behavioural problems
- support children’s mental health and wellbeing
Parenting courses can help parents and carers gain confidence, skills, and knowledge to help build a strong and positive family life, which helps keep families safe, happy and healthy. Courses also provide a great opportunity to meet other families, share stories and build a support network.
A list of current parenting courses and how to access them can be found in the Family and Parenting Services Directory.
