Sessions support parents and carers of nought to five-year-olds to share simple ways of supporting their child’s learning and development in everyday life whilst connecting with others. They can make a real difference by talking, singing, sharing books and playing together. Parents, carers and children can make friends, have fun and share ideas. Peep sessions are delivered in development stages for babies, toddlers and preschoolers and offer ideas and activities to value and build on what parents already do.

Sessions are delivered by trained practitioners and volunteers in groups or on a one-to-one basis. Groups are run for parents and carers with babies from four months to toddlers. Groups are held in community venues for families in South East, South West, North West and North East Edinburgh. Self-referrals are welcome although priority will be given to referrals from partner agencies.
