Summary

This pilot study tests an 8-week group program designed to improve life balance for parents of preschool children. The program includes group sessions, personal goal setting, and phone check-ins. Researchers will measure changes in life balance, parenting stress, and mental health in 30 participants.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Occupational Balance Promotion Program (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a practical, non-drug way to help parents feel more balanced and less stressed.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study (30 people) with no control group, so results may not be generalizable. The program is behavioral, so benefits depend on individual engagement.
