Parenting Groups 

Parenting Groups can help you build a positive relationship with your child, understand what motivates their behaviour and improve parent-child communication.
All our groups are free of charge, contact us or phone 02 66212489 to register.

Please join our mailing list so we can email you about upcoming events including groups in Nimbin or other locations.

We offer a range of Parenting Groups each school term, including Triple P, 123 Magic, Bringing Up Great Kids and Tuning In To Kids. You can download our 470kB  Summary_Of_Parenting_Groups.pdf here. Groups start again in 2022.

What parents are saying about our Parenting Groups:

“I have learned how to listen to my children. I have made different choices as a Dad.
Counting and time out are working well.”

“We got positive feedback and validation about our parenting and will continue working with what we have learned.”
