Parent Education

Sunbeam’s Parenting Education services support parents who are working hard to break the cycle of abuse and create a safe, nurturing, loving home for their children.  

Nurturing Parent Skills

Through this 12-week class parents learn how to: 

  • Manage feelings, communicate needs, be empathetic, and take charge of their own behavior. 
  • Establish nurturing routines including bedtime and mealtimes. 
  • Give and receive healthy touch. 
  • Replace hitting and yelling with more effective discipline techniques.

This class can be customized for different audiences including parenting teens, grandparents raising their grandchildren and parents of special needs children.
