The Parenting Collective CIC has been set up for families and especially for new parents/carers, with the aim of providing parenting support in Manchester for people from all backgrounds. We're so looking forward to welcoming you, no matter who you are, what background you come from. Our new parent support is open to everyone! Come and get involved, where you'll learn how to safely carry your child, as well as getting involved with our “Cake for Breakfast Club” Fourth trimester support group, where we'll support you in navigating the journey ahead of you in a relaxed, fun environment!
If you're a new family getting to grips with life with a baby then, no doubt, you'll need some! Come along to this 5-week new parent support group, set up specifically for new families who have made their way through birth and are now stepping into a new stage of their lives. This group is all about inclusion – creating a non-judgmental, safe space where you can feel at home and relax completely.

Not at all! Whether you’re expecting your first child or your seventh, we can always benefit from the experience of the people around us.
That’s okay by us! Just turn up when you can and you’ll be welcomed.
