Welcome to Parent Help

At Parent Help we offer the only parenting helpline in New Zealand that is available 24 hours a day – seven days a week. The Parent Help Line has no time limit on calls – the greatest gift we can give parents is to listen and listen well.

Who We Are

Parent Help is a community agency that has been offering services to families since 1989.

We cater for all parenting issues from the smallest problem to the most serious issue of child abuse. We are affiliated to Jigsaw – a national prevention of child abuse advocacy organisation. We are also an approved Child, Youth and Family Services provider.

Parent Help is governed by an executive committee. Our day- to- day operations are managed by professional staff including a Coordinator, administrator and counsellors.

Our funding comes from a variety of sources including central and local government, philanthropic and community trusts, sponsorships and donations. Parent Help is registered with the Charities Commission.
