Are you a new parent with your first baby? Would you like to meet with other people who are at the same stage of life as you?

Maybe we at Pukekohe Community Action can help you — or maybe you can help us.
We are starting a new group for our “Space for you and your baby” programme.
We do keep babies with others of similar age so at any time we have a group for babies aged 0 to 3 months, 3 to 6 months, 6 to 9 months and 9 to 12 months.
If you have a new baby or are new to Pukekohe and looking for a group maybe this is a group for you.
One parent commented:
“My daughter and I love going to our Space group sessions! It’s nice to get out of the house and go to an environment that is safe, caring, helpful and loving. It’s nice to be able to chat with other parents that are experiencing similar happenings with their babies and being able to socialise my daughter with other children around her age.
"I have developed some new friends who I am sure will be friends for life. The programme has different topics each week which is awesome for exploring different things/ideas for helping me parent and helping my daughter develop and grow!”
Of course we cannot run these programmes without a good team of volunteers. If you have a couple of spare hours in your week and would like to join a team of people who like to support others we would love to hear from you and have you as part of our Pukekohe Community Action (PCA) team, which has more than 30 people already assisting with programmes as volunteers.
Last year alone PCA had more than 450 people directly participating in programmes. Full training will be provided.If you would like to know more about Space or other PCA programmes, either to be a participant or to help facilitate, please email pukekohecommunityaction@xtra.co.nz or phone or text Jan on 0274521366.
