Is this you?
Most of the time, parenting is great fun. You know you are doing a good job. But there are times when things get a little tricky. Like when your toddler won’t eat her dinner. Or your six year old won’t pick up his toys. Maybe your child never seems to listen or your teenager is always on their phone. If only someone could give you some ideas to make those times easier! If this sounds like you, then Triple P Seminars may be for you.
The Triple P – Positive Parenting Program® is an evidence-based parenting program developed upon research that is ongoing and built on 35 years of data.

Volunteers will receive the free meal as well should they choose to arrive at the designated meal time prior to the session.
