The ParentZone Pods identify common issues parents bring to our parenting groups and explores these in detail. We not only discuss the issues and concerns parents bring, but also offer strategies parents can try in these situations. These podcasts recognise that parenting is the toughest and most important job there is! Children don’t come with a manual, and sometimes parents seek guidance in ways to support their children and improve the family unit as a whole.

The hosts Anita Weber and Laurie-Lee Arrowsmith (Season 1) and Michelle Brown (Season 2) are Parent Group Facilitators working at ParentZone. They work on a daily basis with families in groups supporting them with a variety of parenting issues and concerns.
