Phone Parentline
No matter where you are in Queensland, Triple P help is just a phone call away – seven days a week!
Parentline has trained Triple P providers on staff, available to talk privately with you about your specific parenting problems. They can also help support you if you would prefer to DIY Triple P – either when you are doing the Triple P Online (or Teen Triple P Online) course or using the Triple P self-help workbook.
Here’s how to get your Triple P help from Parentline (for the cost of a local call)...
If you want to deal with a particular problem – straight away, or over a few sessions:
- Phone 1300 30 1300 (between 8am and 10pm daily)
- Ask for Triple P support
You’ll be linked up with a Triple P provider who can give you proven strategies and tips to manage your particular parenting concern. They’ll help you make a plan – and you may also get a free Triple P tip sheet in the mail so you can remember all the great new parenting ideas.
You can choose to talk about just about any parenting problem in your Triple P session, and you may schedule in follow-up calls as well. There are more than 60 Triple P tip sheet topics, with some specifically targeting the common concerns of parents of babies, toddlers, teens and in-betweens!
Some of the issues you could talk about include:
- coping with stress
- managing toddler tantrums
- talking to a teenager
- coping with a teenager’s defiance
- dealing with disobedience
