Cuidiú Parent Supporters are trained in active listening and communication skills, they provide a listening ear as well as general support and evidence based information to support parents and carers throughout their parenthood journey.
Parent supporters do not offer advice or tell you how to be the best parents. They do not have any magic solutions. But they will give you a comfortable and welcoming environment and will provide a space for you to talk in confidence about the ups and downs of parenting. If you need support after 9pm or before 9am, please text before calling.
This service is run entirely by trained volunteers.
Below is a list of Cork-based Parent Supporters, but this service is available throughout Ireland. Please visit our National Website for details.
Names are listed in no particular order-feel free to call or text any counsellor on the list.
