Parenting support services

In Brent we recognise that good parenting makes a big difference to a child's wellbeing and future success and that many parents will need help and guidance at some point in their parenting experience.

By supporting parents, we can help parents and carers bring up their children to:

  • be physically, mentally and emotionally healthy
  • stay safe in their communities and at home
  • enjoy their education and achieve to the best of their ability
  • contribute positively to their community

The resources below are designed to provide information, guidance and support to parents throughout their child's early years, childhood and teenage years.
