What does a parenting course involve?
A parenting course is an opportunity to meet with other parents and address a whole range of issues and subjects related to parenting. Most courses will help parents enhance their relationship with their child and then look at how parents deal with troublesome behaviour.
Why are parenting classes important?
Regardless of the age of your children, or your family situation, attending parenting classes can help you become more confident as a parent, establish a better relationship with your children and help you raise them to be kind, productive, successful and thrive in our society.
When should you start taking parenting classes?
Ideally, you should start your birthing classes early enough to have 8-10 weeks of pregnancy still to go. This usually means you will begin when you are about 30-32 weeks pregnant. It will give you time to practise what you have learned in class, and think through any new information you have been given.
