New parenting programme launches in Medway

Family Action announces the launch of the Medway Universal Parenting Programme, a free initiative designed to empower new parents, carers, and grandparents in understanding their baby’s development and nurturing vital early bonds. The new programme underscores Family Action’s commitment to supporting families and promoting positive early childhood experiences.

Funded as part of the Family Hubs and Start for Life initiative, the Universal Parenting Programme is designed to provide essential support for Medway’s newest families and at the heart of this initiative is the ‘Solihull Parenting Programme – Understanding Your Baby’, a six-week, research-backed course offering insights into early brain development, the importance of early relationships, and practical guidance on infant care.

Natalie Crick, Service Manager said:

We are excited to launch our free Universal Parenting Programme, which underscores our dedication to strengthening families across Medway. This programme equips new parents, carers, and grandparents with valuable skills, insights, and a supportive network to guide them through early parenthood and beyond. As we expand the programme’s reach, we look forward to making positive family experiences accessible to even more local families.
