The Parenting Children Course...
is for parents, step-parents, prospective parents or carers of children 0-10 years. The course is for every type of parenting situation including parenting on your own, step-parenting and parenting as a couple.

​The Parenting Children Course is based on Christian principles but designed for all couples with or without a church background. The Parenting Children Course was developed in 1990 by Nicky and Sila Lee, creators of the Marriage Course and founders of the Alpha Course.
These five sessions, the course will help you to:

• Build strong foundations
• Meet your children's needs
• Set clear boundaries
• Teach healthy relationships
• Consider your long term aim

What can I expect?
On The Parenting Children Course, you are seated in small groups based on the age of your oldest child so that you can meet other parents and carers with children of a similar age. Each session begins with something to eat and/or drink, giving you space to relax and chat to other parents or carers followed by a practical talk and a time for discussion in groups. The talk is given live or on DVD and includes street interview, filmed clips of parents and children sharing their own experiences and advice from parenting experts. 

 This course has now finished but we will update this page when we run it again.  If you would like to receive email updates about future courses, please fill in your details below.
