...for all your questions
about parenting

Raising children is an important and challenging task. Parents are entitled to receive helpful and correct information. To meet this requirement, different institutions in Amsterdam en Diemen have joined to offer tips and solutions on this website that can make parenting easier and family life more enjoyable.

The Positive Parenting Program (Triple P) is aiming at parents with children between 0 and 16 years old. The varied and flexible program suggests simple routines and small changes that can make a big difference to your family. Positive parenting helps to promote the development, growth, health and social competencies of children, which they will benefit from in their adult lives.

The program is currently being implemented throughout Amsterdam en Diemen.

A variety of institutions offer tips, solutions and help in your own language. Visit your local child health centre (het Ouder & Kindcentrum); English/Turkish/Arabic speaking practicioners are regularly present there or translation can be arranged.

Triple P has been developed by Professor M. Sanders and colleagues from the Parenting and Family Support Centre in the School of Psychology at the University of Queensland (Australia). The program is based on more than 20 years of clinical and prevention research trials, contemporary knowledge and years of experience in the guidance of families. For more information, www.triplep.net
