This refresher course is designed specifically for father figures of children from birth to 18 years old who have previously completed the Circle of Security Parenting program. It offers a supportive environment to reflect on your parenting journey, revisit core concepts, and connect with other dads facing similar challenges.
Over three weeks, you will explore important themes such as supporting your child's exploration, being a safe place for them to return to, recognizing your own stress triggers, and repairing connections when things go off track. This is a practical reset to help you keep showing up strong in your parenting role.
Free supper and refreshments will be provided to make your experience comfortable and welcoming.
The program runs from 19 August to 2 September, with sessions held weekly on Wednesdays from 18:00 to 20:00. The sessions are led by Jason Hyde from Authentic Men Org., a dad, mentor, and experienced facilitator who understands the real-world challenges men face in parenting.
Spaces are limited to a maximum of 10 participants to ensure a supportive and engaging group environment. Registration is required, and your place will be confirmed upon completing a full registration form sent by the Cockburn Parenting Service.
This is a free program aimed at father figures who want to deepen their parenting skills and support their children's emotional development.

Free parking is available on-site, and the community hub is equipped with accessibility options such as in-map voice and accessible colour choice for those who need them.
