How Parentline Works

Parentline is open between 8am and 10pm, 7 days a week.

You can call Parentline on 1300 30 1300 for the cost of a local call.

When you call Parentline your counsellor will:

  • Listen carefully to your concerns or problems
  • Work with you to provide support and guidance
  • Help you to sort out important issues for you
  • Help you develop strategies for managing those issues

Your counsellor may also offer to send you relevant Parentline tip sheets from a range of over 100 topics, or provides you options for gaining further parenting training.

Parentline also offers individually-paced parenting programs over the phone for parents or carers who are not able to attend a parenting group in person.
