SUPPORTING FAMILIES

Supporting Families Service

Supporting parents and carers in East Dunbartonshire.
As a parent/carer you are the most important person in your child’s life. You know your child best. The Supporting Families Service provides advice and
support that is tailored to the individual needs of the family.
The support can be delivered in a community setting, online or by telephone.

The strategies and advice are evidenced and researched based and designed to support and build your confidence as a parent, promoting positive relationships with your children.

Can we help you?

We support parents of children up to age 12 (Primary 7) through:
Bespoke one-to-one intervention in person or online.
Group work – small groups delivered over six weeks in person and online.
Short interactive discussion sessions on common parenting challenges.
All our group workshops are delivered daytime and early evening throughout
the school academic year.

To find out more please email: parenting@eastdunbarton.gov.uk
Please include your name, age of your child and postcode.

Alternatively, your child’s Early Years Centre or Primary School can support and complete a Request for Assistance to the service.

Triple P

WHAT IS TRIPLE P?

Triple P is a parenting programme, but it doesn’t tell you how to be a parent. It’s more like a toolbox of ideas. You choose the strategies you need. You choose the way you want to use them. It’s all about making Triple P work for you.

WHAT DOES TRIPLE P DO?

The three Ps in ‘Triple P’ stand for ‘Positive Parenting Program’ which means your family life is going to be much more enjoyable.

Triple P helps you:

  • Raise happy, confident children
  • Manage misbehaviour so everyone in the family enjoys life more
  • Set rules and routines that everyone respects and follows
  • Encourage behaviour you like
  • Take care of yourself as a parent
  • Feel confident you’re doing the right thing

Visit the official Triple P website for more information or speak to our in-house Triple P facilitator.
