Well-being Tuesday: Balancing Studies and Parenthood - A Sharing Circle for Student Parents

Are you studying at the University of Helsinki while raising children? You’re not alone, but student parents often remain an invisible group on campus. Join us for an open and informal sharing circle where you can meet fellow students with children, exchange tips and resources, and discuss the joys and challenges of combining studies with parenthood.

We’ll talk about practical matters (such as daycare and early childhood educations, recreation and culture, and even how to dress for the weather!), share personal experiences, and create a supportive peer network. Whether you are looking for advice, new connections, or simply a space where your situation is understood, this event is for you.

You are warmly welcome to attend with your children, as a small craft corner with materials and toys will be available. Of course, you are also a welcome if you are not a parent, but just curious about navigating studies with parenthood. 

The discussion circle will be in English. The event will be held at the Guidance Corner of Kaisa House, which is accessible with strollers. Family rooms are also available. 

Date & time: 25.11.25, 16:30 – 18:00
