PlayConnect Plus Mount Waverley
Our group supports families who care for a child with a disability from 0 to 8 years.
PlayConnect Plus playgroups provide a forum for parents, siblings, and other caregivers to foster supportive social relationships with others who share similar experiences. These networks provide an invaluable source of emotional and practical support for families across the challenging and often emotional journey of parenting a child with a disability.
