Background:

Mindful parenting programs effectively reduce parenting stress.
Increased accessibility through efficient program delivery is needed.
Online formats offer potential for greater reach.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the feasibility and acceptability of a brief, 4-week online mindful parenting program (Two Hearts).
To evaluate the initial effects of the program on parenting stress and general distress.
To determine participant retention, engagement, and home practice adherence.

Main Methods:

A single case study design involving six community-recruited parents.
Completion of a 4-week online mindful parenting program.
Assessment of feasibility, acceptability, and outcomes (parenting stress, general distress) via pre/post/follow-up measures and program evaluations.

Main Results:

High retention (100%) and positive participant feedback on lasting value.
Variable program adherence and home practice duration over time.
Three parents showed reliable reduction in parenting stress (two with clinically significant change); half showed improved general distress. Two parents experienced increased stress/distress.

Conclusions:

The Two Hearts online program appears feasible and acceptable for some parents, with potential benefits for stress reduction.
Further investigation is required for program adherence, optimal dosage, and the impact of external stressors like COVID-19.
