Haga de la Paternidad un Placer® is a Spanish-language adaptation of the evidence-based Make Parenting a Pleasure® curriculum, tested with families from nine different countries of origin. Designed by parenting educators for parenting educators, Haga de la Paternidad un Placer's facilitated approach to parenting education helps parents achieve their goals for their families and respects the diversity of those goals. Parenting educators give the program high marks for its ease-of-use.
Haga de la Paternidad un Placer is designed to utilize a group dialogue methodology which respects the skills of the parenting educator, empowers families and can be adapted to suit a wide range of environments and populations to improve outcomes. The parenting educator acts as a guide to help the families discover unrealized parenting knowledge. This approach raises the confidence of parents as they discover that they already possess the capabilities necessary to achieve their family goals.
Haga de la Paternidad un Placer addresses key topics, including:
- Self-care
- Stress and anger management
- Understanding child development
- Communication skills
- Positive discipline
Haga de la Paternidad un Placer provides parenting educators with a 13-session turn-key program designed to be implemented with groups of parents. The discussion-focused sessions are straightforward and comprehensive, enabling the implementation of the program without a training requirement; however, comprehensive facilitator training is available through Parenting Now that will benefit even experienced parenting educators.
The curriculum is modularized into discrete sessions, contained within separate facilitator booklets, to enable organizations to offer multiple groups using a single set of materials.
Each session’s module booklet is formatted with icons that guide the parenting educator, identify key concepts, session agendas and session supply lists. Reproducible parent handouts are provided, along with forms for collecting feedback, etc.
Haga de la Paternidad un Placer aligns with Head Start Performance Standards (1302.51 Parent activities to promote child learning and development).
