Nobody's Perfect Parenting Program

Building on parenting strengths to overcome challenges.

Nobody's Perfect is proven to produce key changes in parenting that reduce the risk of families experiencing crisis. Developed for parents with children ages zero to five, the program brings parents in need of support together to discuss and share experiences of parenting.

Support for Today's Families

There are no perfect parents.

It’s something we all know, but sometimes as parents of young children, we need to be reminded.

For parents in particularly stressful situations – when there simply isn’t enough money, when they’re new to the community or to the country, when they’re young, or under-educated, or struggling without a partner or family support – being part of a supportive group of parents who understand and share their difficulties can make all the difference.

Nobody’s Perfect is a parenting education program where parents can safely share their experiences and concerns and receive the support of other parents – in addition to the advice and resources brought by two skilled and knowledgeable facilitators.

This crucial program, developed in Canada for Canadian parents of every cultural community, has been consistently demonstrated to positively impact the parenting knowledge, skills and confidence of participants.

Facilitators tell us ...

"With teen parents, we MUST build trusting relationships before we can hope to share any new learning with them. Nobody's Perfect is a relational, sharing program.  Another vote for NP! "
