Description

MyTime is a time for you.

Being a parent is an important job. It’s easy to get caught up in looking after your child’s needs, but looking after yourself is important too.

MyTime is a place where you can unwind, feel understood and share ideas and experiences with others who understand and access quality information and resources.

MyTime organises supported groups for all parents and carers of children under the age of 18 who need a higher level of care than other children. This might be because of disability, chronic medical condition, or other additional needs including developmental delay. MyTime members come from different backgrounds and their children have different abilities and needs.

A trained facilitator helps group members get to know each other and learn more about local resources and support services. By talking about their experiences and listening to each other without judgement, members share their highs and lows, including how they have navigated challenges. Through this, they build connections with people in similar situations, which can lead to an increased sense of belonging and wellbeing.

Preshool-age children are welcome to attend. While you attend, a play leader will engage your child to give you a chance to wind down and relax.

No booking is required but prior contact can be made if preferred. For more information contact Seymour MyTime Facilitator Trish on 0400 090 762 or email mytime@inspiredcarers.org.au. You can also make an enquiry by visiting MyTime group in Seymour – MyTime.
