Lots of us make New Year resolutions. Have you ever resolved to be a better parent? How long did you last?

There are no perfect parents, but there are things we can do to parent our children more effectively.

Perhaps this year, instead of making that resolution, you could join us for one of our courses and take “Time Out” to think about what you are doing with your children, meet other parents and share stories and hear ideas from evidence-based material. Courses are free to attend and are fun and interactive.

The following courses are starting in January:
