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
