First Time Parents Group

First Time Parents Group

All first-time parents will be booked into a First Time Parent (FTP) group where a range of parenting topics are discussed.

Topics include:

  • Introduction to parenthood
  • Maternal wellbeing
  • Sleep and settling safety
  • Introduction to solids
  • Play and development
  • Childhood illness
  • Introduction to the library

The aim of this group is to connect with other first-time parents in your local area as well as information sharing. Groups are not compulsory but are encouraged. If you are not interested in attending, please discuss with your nurse.

These sessions are held mornings and afternoons, once a week for six weeks.

Groups are generally run face to face with an online option available on request.

For more information or to make a booking, speak with your nurse or phone 8571 1880 (Monday to Friday 8.30am-5pm).
