The Supporting Parents Webinar Series focuses on topics to help parents and caregivers learn how to create environments that help children thrive. These webinars can be used as part of parenting groups or can be used by parents and caregivers independently. Interactive activities are used to share strategies and tips to enhance capacity to raise healthy, safe, and happy children. A recording of the webinar content and activity instructions will be available after each event.

All children depend on the adults around them to provide safe, healthy environments to learn, grow and develop new skills. This presentation will support parents and caregivers in preparing for each stage of child development to better predict and prevent injuries. Unintentional childhood injuries are predictable and preventable, yet they persist as a leading cause of hospitalization and death for children in Canada. By recognizing and addressing common hazards in a child’s environment, parents and caregivers can keep their children safe from life-altering injuries without any bubble wrap.
