Episode Description

In this episode, we will discuss parenting courses with a family skills community educator. We’ll explore what parents get out of carving out time for parenting courses – and are all parenting courses the same?         

  • How can parents get a confidence boost from accessing a parenting course?  
  • Steve will share about differences in parent courses. 
  • He will provide examples of what parents have found most helpful and most challenging.
