The Parenting Project offers a pathway of support which includes Family Wellbeing Support, Counselling and Parent Mentoring.
Children and family centres offer flexible support for families with young people aged 0-19 (25 with additional needs).
The online courses are designed to increase the confidence of parents-to-be, mums, dads, grandparents, and carers. NHS experts and parents have developed them through an evidence-based model known as the Solihull Approach.
All the courses can be completed flexibly, at your own pace. Each of the course modules takes around 15 to 20 minutes to complete. Each course contains several modules. All the courses are FREE for Warwickshire residents using the access code BEAR.
COVENTRY
There are eight Family Hubs in Coventry each providing a welcoming space where children, young people, and families can access services and help.
Early Help is a partnership of organisations who provide help, advice and support to children, young people and families. The aim of Early Help is to help you as soon as possible and prevent problems from getting worse by providing you support, as early as possible. Early Help services can help families, children and young people - pre-birth to 19 years old and 25 years old where there are special educational needs or disabilities.
Coffee Tots https://www.facebook.com/coffeetotscoventry/
This is a baby-friendly cafe at The Wave in Coventry; they run a number of activities for families in the week, and are very supportive; the café is very reasonably-priced, but they also offer a pay-what-you-can meal every day too.
