The Parenting Place, also known as The Child and Family Counselling Service, is dedicated to supporting parents and carers in the Sutherland Shire through the challenging journey of raising young children aged 0-5 years. With a focus on early intervention and prevention, our free counselling services aim to assist families in navigating this crucial stage of parenting. We understand the complexities and pressures that come with raising children and strive to provide a nurturing and supportive environment for all parents.
Our commitment extends beyond physical locations, as we offer a range of online groups and educational talks to parents regardless of their geographical location. By providing accessible resources and support, we aim to empower parents with the knowledge and tools needed to foster healthy and positive relationships with their children. Our philosophy is rooted in collaboration, openness, respect, and empowerment, guiding our approach to delivering high-quality counselling services to the community.
As part of the South Eastern Sydney Local Health District, The Parenting Place plays a vital role in serving the diverse population of the region, which is projected to grow significantly in the coming years. With a focus on inclusivity and cultural sensitivity, we strive to meet the unique needs of our community, where a significant percentage of residents come from non-English speaking backgrounds and have long-term health conditions. Through our dedicated staff and comprehensive range of services, we are committed to promoting the health and well-being of families in the Sutherland Shire and beyond.
