Growing Connections: Parent & Toddler Play Group

Growing Connections is not your typical playdate or support group. So what makes it different? Parents bring their young child(ren) to play, and build connections with other parents all whilst receiving support at the same time, in the same room. No need to find childcare.  

Let’s be honest, becoming a parent is a huge transition and most of us do not have the support we need to thrive. This group offers space for parents to explore parenting topics led by what is currently going on in their lives.
