The challenges that lie ahead don't seem so daunting. I have already recommended this service to friends and colleagues... Thank you very much.
This is a fantastic service that offered me the support I needed to parent in difficult times. I couldn't have managed without your weekly support call.
I had a great experience of contacting Parenting Focus. Staff were very supportive when I rang in and I felt they really understood how I was feeling.
Empathetic and understanding support was given at my weakest times and you will never know how much you have helped and the significance of the help I received.
Parenting Focus have helped me immensely, their help has been invaluable and has got me through some very difficult times.
