Parent Support Services™

Support, Education and Empowerment

 

Parenthood is a life-changing journey that takes you along the most extraordinary path of wonder, joy, challenges, and fulfillment. While on the path, obstacles may temporarily show up inviting you to shift gears and often make changes in order to get back on track.

Parent Support Services are designed to be your guide along this new journey.

When obstacles seem too large to figure out on your own or you simply need a fresh, outside perspective, we can help by offering reliable information, parenting tips, ideas and options.

Services support individual parenting styles, honoring the unique needs of each family.

New Parents Education Sessions are designed to keep parents moving forward toward the goals they have for their child and family. Each pre-designed session looks ahead for common road-blocks. Having insight ahead of time will help to remove or lessen the impact of obstacles before they surface.

The goal of each session is to empower new parents, helping to instill a sense of confidence and self-reliance; to get them comfortable in the decisions they are making for their child and family. If the parents are secure in their decisions, their children will also feel secure.

Parents using our services feel well informed, encouraged, supported, and prepared to make a decision or take action. They are much more at ease with themselves and confident with the choices they are making. There is always a choice and the choice you make should be your own.

Release the tension, gain new knowledge and perspective and live your new journey in peace and confidence.
