Parenting Top Tips

Throughout July we have been posting our top positive parenting tips. As paediatric psychologists, one of our roles is to support parents in on their journey as they navigate their roles as parents. Our July top tips were intended to provide parents with some of our favourite tips and ideas on how to raise confident, resilient and brave children. This means that we have ended up with 31 top tips, so in amongst those tips we hope that you will find something that is useful for you. Everyone is on their own parenting journey and we hope that you find some useful takeaways in our top tips, or maybe just reinforced some of the helpful things you are already doing.

A huge credit to our Provisional Psychologist on placement from Monash University Natalie Mizzi who put these wonderful posts together.
