FATHERS FOR FAMILIES
A groundbreaking 10-week programme and mentoring peer-support group for fathers, who want to become the best dads they can be.
The 10-week Initiation course is based in Wiri, Waiuku & Pukekohe. It offers a space for fathers to learn new skills and listen to each other.
Graduates of the course are invited to become part of the Circle, a Peer Support Group, who gather regularly to chat, have some kai, work out at the gym, and support each other on their journey. This programme works hand in hand with Family Start.
INCREDIBLE YEARS
A 14-week course to teach mums and dads effective parenting tools and tricks for bringing up kids between the ages of three and eight.
Topics covered in the programme include developing your child’s social and emotional skills, self-regulation and school readiness.
We run Incredible Years from our offices in Wiri, Manukau, in 14 sessions of about two hours.
Onsite babysitting services are provided, and feel free to talk to us if transport is a problem - we can sort something out.
