Forth Valley PANDAS
- VO101055
We are looking for volunteers to help support families where one or both parents are being impacted by perinatal mental health problems. This could be depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD or any other mental health issues that can occur as the result of pregnancy or the birth of a baby.
Ideally for our support group we would like people to have some lived experience of a perinatal mental health problem.
At the support group we help parents through their journey. This might just be listening, signposting to other organisations, cuddling a baby whilst parents have a hot drink etc.
Our Parenting Multiples Group (run in conjunction with Stenhousemuir FC Community Foundation) offers a slightly different type of support and is not necessarily for parents experiencing mental health issues. This group is for parents of multiple babies which brings a very different dynamic to parenting. In this group you will assist setting up a play area, making teas & coffees, playing with children, interacting with babies.
Experience required
Must be good with children. Patient, reliable, a good listener and non-judgemental.
