Paredos Barbados

Paredos Barbados PAREDOS is a non-profit organisation, formed in 1968 in response to the needs identified by parents and concerned professionals.

The mandate was to improve parenting skills and family life in Barbados. PAREDOS is funded entirely from grants, donations, covenants, a government subvention, fund-raising activities, and membership drives.

👕👗👟🧸📚🏠 Clear your closets, shelves, and storage spaces—and make a difference!

PAREDOS is collecting gently used clothing, shoes, toys, books, and household items for the FINAL Terry’s Closet, our community initiative that has supported children and families in need for the past three years.

Donations will be accepted from June 15 to July 20.

Every item donated helps provide practical support, comfort, and hope to individuals and families within our community.

Whether it’s clothing your family has outgrown, books waiting for a new reader, toys ready for a new home, or household items that can still serve a purpose, your generosity can make a meaningful impact.

Together, we can turn items we no longer need into resources that help others thrive.

🏃‍♂️ MYTH VS FACT – WEEK 4

MYTH: Children will just burn it off because they’re active.

FACT: Activity is important, but it can’t fully offset a diet high in ultra-processed foods.

Children need regular movement for healthy growth and development, but even very active children can be affected by diets high in ultra-processed foods, sugary drinks, and excess calories. These foods can contribute to weight gain and increase the risk of health problems over time.

Good health is not about choosing between healthy eating and physical activity—it requires both. Supporting children with nutritious foods and opportunities to be active gives them the best chance to grow, learn, and thrive.

Healthy habits today help build a healthier future tomorrow.

Dr. Jones also shares her personal parenting journey, including her determination to raise her daughter differently from how she was raised. She speaks candidly about the challenges, sacrifices, and conscious choices required to break unhealthy patterns and build a legacy rooted in love, resilience, and purpose.

💙🕊️ You are invited to S.E.R With Love: A Thanksgiving Legacy Service 🕊️💙

What began as a safe space for children grieving the loss of their fathers has become a testament to courage, healing, and hope. Through shared stories, tears, laughter, and support, the children and families of the S.E.R. Grief Camp have shown remarkable resilience.

Join the Barbados Association of Professional Social Workers as they come together to honour the fathers we miss, celebrate journeys taken, and embrace the future with renewed strength. This special service is an opportunity to reflect on how far we’ve come and to recognize the community that has walked alongside us every step of the way.

Because healing happens in connection. Because every story matters. Because love continues the legacy. ❤️

🔥 MYTH VS FACT – WEEK 3

MYTH: A calorie is a calorie.

FACT: Not all calories affect the body in the same way.

While a calorie is a unit of energy, the source of those calories matters. Calories from whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, beans, and whole grains come packaged with fiber, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that support growth and health. In contrast, many ultra-processed foods provide calories along with added sugars, unhealthy fats, and excess sodium, often without the nutrients children need.

Different foods also affect hunger, fullness, blood sugar, and energy levels differently. Two foods may contain the same number of calories, but they can have very different effects on a child’s health.

Focusing on the quality of food—not just the calorie count—can help families make healthier choices.

This Sunday on Pause for Parenting, we welcome Jay Belmar, Mass Media Campaign Officer for an important conversation about the Foundation’s new campaign, “Enough. If it harms our children’s health, it must be regulated.”

Children are exposed every day to advertising that influences their food choices, preferences, and eating habits. Jay discusses how food and beverage marketing impacts children’s health, why schools should be safe spaces that promote healthy choices, and what parents, educators, and communities can do to support healthier environments for our children.

Join us as we explore the role of marketing in shaping children’s behaviors and learn how we can work together to draw the line on unhealthy food and drink promotion in schools.

June is Men’s Mental Health Month—a time to recognize that mental wellness matters at every stage of life.

From boyhood to older adulthood, Black men often face unique challenges while being expected to remain strong, silent, and resilient. This month, let’s challenge that narrative. Strength is not found in suffering alone—it is found in speaking up, seeking support, and caring for your emotional well-being.

Whether you’re a son, brother, father, uncle, mentor, or friend, your mental health matters. Let us create spaces where Black men and boys feel seen, heard, valued, and supported.

Strong men feel. Strong men talk. Strong men heal.
