Parent & Toddler Initiative
The Parent and Toddler Group Initiative is a strategic partnership between the Office of the Minister for Children and the Katharine Howard Foundation (KHF) under the National Childcare Investment Programme 2006-2010.
The primary purpose of the initiative is to provide grants to parent and toddler groups for the development of their services. It is also designed to develop a support and information strategy, in collaboration with the City and County Childcare Committees, to assist the promotion and expansion of Parent and Toddler Groups. This initiative also works closely with other agencies and organisations that already provide valuable ongoing support to these groups, ensuring a collaborative approach.
