Raising a child can be an overwhelming experience, but St.Giles Parent Information sessions are here to equip you with skills and strategies to better understand and assist your child as they develop.

These sessions look at common areas of concern for parents such as communication, behaviour, food and meal times, and sensory processing.

Sessions are held either online via telehealth or at our centres around Tasmania.
