Natural Parenting Melbourne is a city-wide network of families and professionals aiming to support, educate and celebrate the diversity of natural choices available to families as they journey their way through pregnancy, birth and ongoing parenthood.

At the heart of our philosophy, resides a deep belief in the instinctive ability of all parents to care for their children in a responsive and respectful manner. By offering families a friendly and relaxed environment in which to share and learn, our playgroups aim to nurture and support parents to embrace this “inner knowing” and confidently parent their children in the way that feels right for them.

Holistic concepts supported include natural approaches to health and birth, extended breastfeeding, gentle sleep solutions, baby-wearing, positive discipline, alternative schooling, green living and environmental awareness.
