Tresillian are a non-for-profit organisation that assists Australian families with the early years of their child. Tresillian assists over 80,000 families so the Library is excited to be able to hold an information session for local families. With over 100 years of invaluable service to generations of young families, Tresillian has played an important and unique role in the history of New South Wales. It continues to offer a range of services including parenting programs, counselling and one on one advice, designed to provide professional support for families with a baby, toddler or pre-schooler.

Tresillian assists families with gaining confidence as new mums and dads and teaches parents about routines in breastfeeding, sleep, settling and nutrition. Tresillian also offers help and assistance to anyone suffering from post-natal depression.

Being a new parent can be extremely overwhelming, but Tresillian can help. Today’s parents also have easy access to Tresillian’s well-resourced website and social media channels, a baby Sleep App, telehealth consultations, parenting programs and more. The information session will provide parents with the opportunity to ask questions and learn about how they access the service.

The Library would like to thank its partnership with Thrive for making this visit possible. If you want to learn more about Tresillian and what they do, head to www.tresillian.org.au/
