What is parent education?

The parent educator works with a group of parents to share ideas, explore parenting frustrations and questions, motivate, inspire and have FUN as we consider together how to do our best in the tender and challenging job of raising children. Our classes are highly interactive and resource rich. Parent education can be offered as a single presentation or as on-going classes of 4 to 12 sessions.
