Community Parenting Sessions – Genius!

Parenting can often be an isolating experience where you feel like you are constantly making mistakes when navigating the sleepless nights, tantrums and mealtime mishaps involved with raising a young child.

Genius Childcare in Cannonvale understand this implicitly which is why they’ve decided to launch a series of community parenting sessions designed to bring parents together in an informal setting to share knowledge and learn tips and tricks from facilitator Jen Frisby-Young.

“It’s all about empowering children without losing your mind!” said Centre Manager, Bec Schultz.

“We are promoting parent self-care and tackling the hot topics like toileting, sleep habits and more.”

Each session will have a different theme and tea, coffee and snacks will create a sociable atmosphere for all to enjoy.

Facilitator Jen Frisby-Young is a qualified neuro-linguistic Programmer who meticulously researches each topic so she can impart as much knowledge as possible.

“I’ve found that there is a large need in the community for connection and support,” said Jen.

“These events are open to everyone in the community – they are a great way to meet-up and form friendships.”

Genius Childcare is an innovative and holistic early years education centre for preschool-aged children offering state-of-art, purpose-built childcare facilities, a diverse and thoughtful curriculum, and passionate, highly skilled educators to lead the way.

The Curriculum is based on the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and has a strong emphasis on play-based learning, recognising the importance of communication, language, social and emotional development.
