At Parent Pathways and Employment Plus, our support goes beyond employment. That’s why we offer a wide range of services designed to help parents and carers build skills, manage life’s challenges, and move forward with confidence.
Through our network of partner services, you can access practical help for many aspects of daily life, because we understand that work, family, and wellbeing are all connected.
If you’re thinking about what comes next, here are some of the ways we can help:
Career guidance
Work one-on-one with a mentor to explore your goals, discover your strengths, and find a path that fits your lifestyle and aspirations.
Language & literacy support
Build essential reading, writing, and communication skills - or develop confidence in English if it’s your second language - so you can feel ready for study or work.
Short courses and training
Learn new skills, gain certifications, and boost your confidence through practical training opportunities, such as a short course at the local TAFE or driving lessons.
Childcare placement assistance
We can help you explore childcare options and connect you with services that suit your family’s needs and routine. For more information on childcare, check out our article on exploring your childcare options.
Financial support for training
Get help with course costs and related expenses to make study and training more accessible.
Referrals to family services
Life can be challenging, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. We can connect you with trusted partners for support with mental health, wellbeing, housing, and more.
Whether you’re looking to study, find work, or simply regain a sense of balance, our team and partners are here to help you out. There’s no set path and no pressure - just flexible support designed to move at your pace. You can start when you’re ready, take a break if you need to, and return whenever it feels right for you!
