Parents Plus Programmes in partnership with Parentline.
The courses are practical, positive and evidence-based, with proven benefits for the families who attend. The courses are suitable for all kinds of families including those dealing with the normal ups and downs of parenting and those dealing with specific challenges.
- Each course is delivered online via Zoom by a professionally qualified facilitator over six two-hour weekly sessions to a group of about 14 parents.
- All sessions are interactive, with plenty of time to address individual goals and concerns.
- Two weeks prior to starting the course, the facilitator contacts each parent to discuss their goals and to ensure the course meets their needs.
- You will also receive the accompanying course parent book by post.
- We will be anonymously collecting pre and post course feedback from parents to help us evaluate the benefits of the course. We will give you more details when you sign up.
The programmes are open to parents in the Republic of Ireland only. Bookings will close two weeks before each course starts. It is recommended that you only attend one course at a time.
We are greatful to TUSLA for funding our 2025 courses.
Please note that Parentline volunteers do not have information on future course offerings. Thank you for respecting the phone line volunteers.
