Our courses avoid fads and media hype to focus on time tested, time proven skills and techniques to help parents become more engaged and confident. We believe that parent education should be designed to provide knowledge, skills and resources. Our goal is to empower parents to define who they are in the family, and to never limit them with rules or pop psychology.

Our classes focus on topics ranging from how to sooth a crying infant to balancing work/life, led by parents who’ve been through it and are willing to share their experiences.

Programs are offered both directly from Fathering and Family Institute, and through agreements with local birth and family education centers. We can also develop custom training programs for preschools, daycare centers or parent groups. In addition to our parent education programs, we offer American Red Cross CPR and First Aid courses for parents, the workplace and community groups.
