Who says kids should have all the fun learning and growing? Parenting is a learned skill, too. But it’s not always fun — and it’s never easy.
Parenting instincts and confidence benefit greatly from exposure to research-based strategies and time-tested wisdom from expert educators. Here are Valley programs that offer classes to help you find the sweet spot where “effective parenting” meets “enjoyable experience” for all.
