Classes at CARE

Parenting Classes

Parenting can be the most rewarding and challenging job in the world. For all the memorable birthdays, soccer games, graduations, and other milestones, parenting also comes with enormous responsibilities, a monotonous daily grind, relentless worry, sleep deprivation, and very little time to yourself.

Most of us are pretty unprepared for the demands of parenting, yet we navigate the best we can with no roadmap to guide us.

We know how hard parenting can be

CARE offers a range of positive parenting classes for families with children of any age to help you stay on course. From newborn to teenager, CARE’s free parenting classes will give you the skills and information you need to reach and support your kids in meaningful ways and improve behavior. Parents can choose from three different classes, depending on the age of their child:

Parenting Young Children — for parents of children 0-4
Parenting School Age Children —for parents of children 5-12
Parenting Teens – for parents of children 12-18

All of CARE’s education classes provide the information and tools so you learn to:

improve your relationship with your child
communicate more effectively
gain more cooperation
have fewer power struggles
provide discipline that teaches personal responsibility

Grandparents, stepparents, and other caregivers

These free parenting classes are not just for parents. We welcome the opportunity to include stepparents, grandparents, guardians, foster parents, educators and day care providers.

"CARE, the name gives a complete definition of who we are and what we do. Being apart of CARE has become full circle for me. I started as a teacher taking a class to learn more resources and strategies to run a more effective classroom. Now I am a CARE facilitator sharing the same resources and strategies with parents and caregivers of children ages birth to five."
