ParentChild+ Programme


The programme helps parents to improve their children’s social, language and thinking skills from an early age and thereby, ensure that children enter school ready to learn, with the skills they need to be successful throughout their education.


All ParentChild+ home visitors are employed from their local communities, and many were originally parents on the programme. This has brought considerable value to both the delivery of home visiting and to creating transformational change in the local community.

GRD is working in partnership with the Early Learning Initiative, National College of Ireland to bring ParentChild+ to families in Co. Galway.
