Helping Parents Grow

The Parenting Center at Manning Family Children's helps parents and grandparents with the ordinary challenges of raising children. Our staff of Parent Educators come from a variety of backgrounds to help families grow from birth through adolescence. The Center provides classes, a lending library and a playroom. Our Parent Educators are available by phone and email to talk about your parenting questions and challenges from typical issues like eating and sleep, welcoming a new baby, communicating with your teen, and more!

Please call 504.896.9591 or email chparenting@LCMChealth.org to register for classes.

The Parenting Center serves as a:

• Resource center where parents can learn about child development and parenting skills
• Support center where parents can discuss concerns with other parents and staff
• Referral center where parents can receive direction to community resources, and
• PLACE to PLAY!
