Triple P – The Positive Parenting Program
Many Public Health Staff are trained Triple P practitioners. The Positive Parenting Program uses a helpful, practical approach to raising children that focuses on the positive.
Triple P uses strong, nurturing relationships, good communication and positive attention to help children. Trained practitioners can provide support to families with regards to their child’s behaviour and encourage positive parenting.
Contact your local Public Health Office nurse to discuss positive parenting skills and arrange for a one to one discussion.
