Most of the time, parenting is 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. If only someone could give you some ideas to make those times easier! If this sounds like you, then a Triple P Seminar may be right for you.

WHAT ARE TRIPLE P SEMINARS? 

Triple P Seminars are for groups of parents. This program is a series of three informal sessions and guided discussion. 

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?

The seminars are each 2 hours in length. There is time for your questions and group discussion, but you won’t have to speak up if you don’t want to. It’s your choice. There’s no homework and no follow up. It is designed to be a brief introduction to the Triple P strategies. But you will definitely get some great ideas to take home and try out with your family!
