Frist steps new parents group

Brimbank City Council welcomes you and your family to be part of the First Steps New Parent Group program.

This is a facilitated seven-week program for new parents and is delivered in English, Vietnamese and Burmese.

The aim of the group is to support you in your role as a new parent, and to give you an opportunity to meet and socialise with other new parents in the area.

The program covers a range of topics including:

  • Getting to know each other and getting to know your baby
  • Being a parent in Australia
  • Helping baby sleep and settle
  • Food, your baby and the family
  • Looking after yourself
  • Getting to know your baby
  • Play, more than fun and games
