Parental Guidance Conference: Your Blueprint to Parenting Prenatal to Primary School!

The Parental Guidance Conference is the brain child of Jennifer Erickson and Melanie Montgomery and has been in the works since early 2010. Both Jennifer and Melanie are excited to have this project launch in 2012.

The Parental Guidance Conference will be the first conference of its kind in the Lower Mainland and will feature interactive and informative workshops on various topics facing parents in the community.

Over the course of the 1 day event parents will be able to attend the workshops of their choice based on the stage they are at with their childrens development. Workshops will be facilitated by local experts in their field and give parents an opportunity to connect on a more personal level with the resources that are available to them.

“Our goal is to bring parents and local experts together in a community based forum and have them connect one on one and be able to ask questions based on their specific situation as well as obtain general information on various topics.”

The conference will focus on the early childhood years from prenatal right through to primary school with parenting experts from around the Lower Mainland coming together to deliver their knowledge and expertise. Topics will range from “how to prepare for baby” to “breastfeeding 101” and “how to feed a picky preschooler” to “why won’t my toddler sleep” as well as many more. There will also be informative seminars on Anti-Bullying, being cyber-savvy and on-line safety, how to choose childcare that works for your family and so much more.

“There will be something for everyone at the Parental Guidance Conference. We will have workshops geared towards both parents as well as some just for mom and just for dad. There will be on-site childminding and of course great local businesses, entertainment and prizes! It will be a great event that you won’t want to miss.”
