Why the Positive Parenting Program (Triple P)?

Parenting is very rewarding and enjoyable and it can also be challenging and exhausting. There is no one right way to be a parent – it is up to you to decide what values, skills and behaviors you want to encourage in your child. 

Triple P offers information, support and practical answers to common, everyday parenting concerns. It provides easy-to-use tips and new ideas that will help you build confidence and new skills.

What Triple P Teaches

The Triple P program is built on five principles of positive parenting:

  1. Ensuring a safe, interesting environment
  2. Creating a positive learning environment
  3. Using assertive discipline
  4. Having realistic expectations
  5. Taking care of yourself as a parent

Triple P offers parenting information and tips in four main areas:

  1. Developing positive relationships
  2. Encouraging desirable behavior
  3. Teaching children new behaviors and skills
  4. Managing misbehavior

Triple P Supports Every Parent and Family

Whether you want a quick tip on how to handle a specific issue, some ideas on how to promote your child's development, or help with more complex family issues, a trained practitioner can tailor Triple P to suit your needs.

Over 80 practitioners are ready to provide Triple P services that will meet your family’s needs.
