pregnancy support group antenatal education

My colleague Samantha and I present THE CRADLE - social groups designed for for first-time expectant parents.
The six weekly sessions cover topics such as nappy changing, feeding, bathing, sleep routines, and parent's wellbeing. There will also be ample opportunity to chat and connect with other local expectant parents. This is a practical, friendly, social and compassionate group and we would love to see you there as you embark on your exciting journey into parenthood!

Parenting Support Services

With more than forty years as a registered nurse, and working in areas such as training, community services, delivering Triple P parenting courses, and mental health, I am available to help you with parenting issues and clear up confusion around health concerns when you're not sure what to do next.

My approach is to provide a holistic and non-judgemental personalised service.

Whether you just want a one-off session, two-to-four sessions of on-going support, or a more comprehensive program, I am flexible in meeting your needs.

Face to Face available in Melbourne, other locations via Teams.

My Philosophy

I believe that “it takes a village to raise a child” and equally that “the parent is always the parent”. As such it is your rights as a parent that I uphold. I offer assistance without judgement because I know how difficult and complex the role of being a parent can be, often with few supports, few relevant role models and no “one right way to raise a child”.

All of us as parents receive little or no training about how to parent, so the right support can make a big difference. I believe parenting can and should be enjoyable and I use all my resources to assist you to minimise the stress and boost the happiness involved in raising your children. You deserve a happy family.
