Parents and carers in Denbighshire are being encouraged to make use of free online resources offering advice and support on parenting, family relationships and children's emotional wellbeing.
The courses, funded by Denbighshire County Council, are available through the Togetherness online programme and cover different stages of family life, from pregnancy and the early years through to adolescence.
More than 4,700 parents and guardians in Denbighshire have already registered as online learners.
The resources are designed to help parents, carers and grandparents better understand children's development, behaviour and emotional health, as well as supporting positive family relationships.
They include ante-natal and post-natal courses, specialist support for parents of babies receiving neonatal intensive care, and guidance on understanding children from toddler age through to their teenage years.
There are also courses specifically addressing additional learning needs, adolescence and the emotional wellbeing of parents themselves.
The programme has been developed with input from clinical psychologists and professional practitioners, with courses available in several languages.
All the learning is self-paced and private, allowing families to access the information whenever and wherever it suits them.
Councillor Huw Hilditch-Roberts, Denbighshire County Council's Deputy Leader and Lead Member for Education, Families, Welsh Language, Culture and Heritage, said the courses offered support throughout the parenting journey, from pregnancy to adolescence.
He said they could help parents and carers better understand children's development and behaviour, adding that the partnership supported the council's ambition to build happier, healthier and stronger communities.
The resources are free to Denbighshire residents.
Families can register at www.togetherness.co.uk/learn, using the free access code NWSOL, or enter their Denbighshire postcode into the website's free access checker.
