Parent/Carers Coffee Sessions
Monday 21 July 2025 at 1:00PM
Sutton Best Start Family Hub - Shanklin Community Centre
Event Description
Maybe you’re after some parenting advice but aren’t sure where to turn. If any of this sounds like you then our parent/carer coffee and information sessions are just what you need!
You’ll receive a warm welcome, a cup of tea or coffee and the chance to chat with other parents and carers who totally get where you’re coming from.
Parenting is an amazing journey, but it can be tough at times, and feeling isolated is more common than you might think. So, if you're looking for a bit of support, advice or simply a friendly face, we’d love to see you at one of our sessions. No need to book – just pop along!
Our Children's Centre services are restricted to those living in the London Borough of Sutton only. Our sessions are very popular and we want to prioritise those living in the borough. If you are unsure what your local area offers please do not hesitate to contact us and we will signpost you to your nearest service.
