Discover Hāpai Whanau

The word Hapai comes from te reo Māori. It means to empower, lift up, support.

We are a charity created to support families on their journey of relationship with their children.

Hapai Whanau’s parenting courses weave science with your own wisdom so you and your family can flourish.

Enjoying relationship with your children

The goal of every parent

We all want to enjoy relationships with our children. We want to enjoy the journey, and in time, love being around our adult children. While we imagine having perfect children might be nice, what we really want are enjoyable, healthy relationships.

Parenting Resources

Our courses are designed to help us all build great relationships with our children. We have antenatal classes and parenting resources for babies, toddlers and more.

Online – In-person and
anywhere you are

Love Parenting courses are delivered online and in-person. If we don’t have an in-person class near you you can join an online live webinar with a group of parents from the comfort of your own home.
