MyTime

 MyTime is a $9 million national facilitated peer support program for parents and caregivers of  preschool children  with a disability or chronic medical condition.  

MyTime  is coordinated by the Parenting Research Centre on behalf of the Department of Families and Housing, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs.

How

MyTime groups receive funding to meet for 64 hours a year with a facilitator in a community setting, allowing parents and caregivers to come together to socialise and find out about local community support and research based parenting information while their children are supervised by play helpers.

There are 64 MyTime groups in metropolitan and regional Victoria, 32 of which were established by Playgroup Victoria, the major provider of MyTime in Victoria.
