Enjoy a welcoming community gathering at Whittlesea Library where you and your children can engage in storytime, fun games, and interactive activities. This program is designed to foster connection among families and provide valuable information from local experts.
Parents and carers will have the opportunity to meet with the City of Whittlesea Early Years team and maternal child and health nurses. These professionals will share insights on toilet training, including signs your child is ready to transition out of nappies, typical toileting behaviors, and where to find additional support.
This informal session is perfect for parents looking to connect with others while gaining practical advice in a relaxed setting.
The event is facilitated by the City of Whittlesea Children and Families Department in partnership with Yarra Plenty Regional Library. It is tailored for families with young children and focuses on early childhood development and parenting support.
You can expect a mix of storytelling, playful activities, and informative discussions led by experienced professionals. The session encourages questions and sharing among attendees to create a supportive community atmosphere.
This program is free of charge and suitable for parents and carers seeking guidance and connection.
