A new monthly group for parents and families of babies and preschoolers in Leigh, Pakiri and surrounding areas has been established.
The meetings will be held on Mondays, between 10am and midday, at the Leigh Church Hall, and will be hosted by Plunket parent educator Adele Van de Ven.
Adele says the aim is to provide a relaxed and friendly environment where parents and families can connect and chat about anything that might be on their minds.
“Some of the topics that I anticipate include brain development, parenting styles, discipline versus punishment, tantrums versus meltdowns, parenting with empathy, conscious parenting, and so on,” she says. “We will also discuss the more practical side of parenting, including teething, toilet learning, sleep and settling, and self-care for caregivers.”
Meeting dates are May 6, June 10, July 1, August 5, September 2, October 7, November 4 and December 2. Bookings are essential and a gold coin donation would be appreciated.
