ParentZone is the Regional Parenting Resource Service for the Northern, Eastern, and Southern Metropolitan regions of Melbourne and the Gippsland region of Victoria.
Every year, Parentzone works with thousands of parents, carers and professionals to provide parents and carers with access to the resources and support they need to parent effectively.
Often parents report that they come to Parentzone group work programs to learn new strategies so they can stop yelling at their kids or losing their temper. By the end of the program, one of the most common things parents report is that they are no longer shouting at their kids.
