About The Courses
The Parenting Course brings fresh insights and time-tested values to the task of parenting.
The Parenting Children Course & The Parenting Teenagers Course were developed by Nicky and Sila Lee, co-authors of The Parenting Book and The Marriage Book. They have been married for over thirty years, have four children, three grandchildren and are on the staff at Holy Trinity Brompton – the London church that started the Alpha course. They started running the courses at Holy Trinity Brompton in 1996.
Drawing on their own experience of bringing up four children and having talked to thousands of parents over the years on their parenting courses, Nicky and Sila Lee bring fresh insights and time-tested values to the task of parenting.
What’s included?
The evenings start with drinks and delicious puddings, followed by practical talks that are both encouraging and engaging whilst giving you plenty of space for discussion.
Who is The Parenting Course for?
Parents, step-parents, prospective parents or carers of children aged 0 – 18 years.
