Preparing children and young people to become good parents
Before Becoming A Parent (B4BP) is a charity whose aim is to prepare children and young people, well in advance, for the realities of parenting. We seek to educate them through innovative, memorable, experience-based activities about the emotional needs of babies, children, teenagers and parents, and how best to meet them.

Human beings remember what they have learnt through experiential methods which involve their emotions, far more than what they learn through purely intellectual methods.

"Mothers and fathers, by the kind of life they build within the four walls of the home, are largely responsible for the future social and public life of the country."
