Stop Press:

Triple P is the ‘Positive Parenting Programme’. This highly popular programme helps you understand the way your family works, and uses the things you already think, feel and say and do in new ways that nurture relationships, parenting skills and confidence, as well as supporting your wellbeing. For more information about the programme follow the link below.

Supporting Parents of Teenagers (SPOT) is an 8 week programme for parents of teenagers and courses are held every year in Gosport, usually in one of the secondary schools. A similar course ‘Coping with your Teenager’ also takes place each Autumn term.

There are regular opportunities for you to take part in a Triple P or a SPOT programme at various locations in Gosport. Please check above or the events calendar for more details of forthcoming courses. Courses are available free of charge to any parent or carer in Gosport, regardless of the school your child attends.

Step by Step - networking group for busy moms!

Step by Step hold a meeting the 2nd Tues of every month at 58 keyes Road Gosport Hants PO13 0JA from 12 to 2pm.
It is a networking group and strategy meeting for busy mums who want ideas on how to get the balance right.
It is run by Sheryl Andrews who has supported women for 14 years to achieve their dreams. Sheryl is a qualified life coach and specialises in bringing harmony to the home in 3 easy steps. A particular passion is the transition from child to adult.

It costs £10 with lunch included (usually sandwiches) provided from 12 to 12.30 and this is a chance for Mums to network. We have mums in business and we have full time mums, all of which usually face the same challenge " how to please everyone that is important to them". There is a viewing of my Formula 1 Theory and why being a mum is like driving Formula 1 the only difference is that we don't take the breaks and how as mums we could learn from the F1 drivers some of their strategies as we are already going around in circles at 200 miles an hour.
