Connecting parents with their peers
MyTime is a unique service for parents and carers of children with a disability, developmental delay or concern about their child’s development.
It’s a regular meeting place where you can unwind, socialise, discuss, get information, and support and be supported by other parents and family carers. It’s a world away from appointments and therapy. It’s support for you!
Members get to plan the group sessions around their specific needs as carers.
MyTime @ Plumtree is run by parent facilitators who have shared experience in raising a child with disabilities and delays.
During MyTime we will:
- Chat over tea/coffee – in some MyTime sessions, members just relax over a coffee, talk about their week and share advice and information.
- Learn something new – in some sessions, the facilitator or a guest speaker might lead discussions on a topic of interest.
- Take care of yourself – sometimes, the group might just have fun with an activity aimed at helping members relax and look after their wellbeing.
This program is for
Parents, primary carers and family members of children with disability, developmental delay or neurodivergence aged 0-18 years old.
