In partnership with Sydney Local Health District, we are seeking Expressions of Interest for a parenting program delivered to parenting pairs who are new to parenting. If interested in attending please enter your information through the ticket booking section and we will be in contact to discuss the program and confirm suitability. If you're unsure if this program is for you, feel free to fill out the ticket booking sections and we will call and answer any questions!

The program is free, however the required workbook has a cost of $50 and this can be shared by both people in the pair.
