Little Hayes and Speedwell Nursery School is pleased to share information about valuable parenting programs available through Bristol Family Hubs. These free support groups are designed for parents and carers with children aged 0-8 years and offer practical guidance, emotional support, and opportunities to connect with other local families.
The Bristol Children’s Centres run several programs to support parents at every stage of their journey:
For expectant parents, “Welcome To The World” and “Rockabye” antenatal programs help prepare for parenthood in a supportive group environment. After birth, programs like “Rockabye Postnatal” provide support for parents with babies up to 6 months old.
Parents of toddlers and young children can benefit from evidence-based programs such as “Circle of Security,” “Parenting Puzzle,” “The Incredible Years,” and “The Nurturing Programme.” These focus on understanding child behavior, building strong relationships, and developing effective parenting skills.
All programs are facilitated by experienced Bristol Children’s Centre staff, with some sessions offering crèche facilities. Free online learning options are also available for families who prefer self-led courses.
