Having large families and raising children are features inherent to playing the Sims 4 base game. However, the parenting skill is exclusive to the Sims 4 Parenthood game pack. This post details how to cheat the parenting skill to instantly change your sim’s skill progress. It’s easy to do and very helpful, especially if you want to unlock the super efficient baby care perk from maxing the skill. It’s a lifesaver when playing with a large household!

Step 1 – Enable Cheats 

Make the cheat bar appear in the top left hand corner of the screen by pressing:

  • CTRL + Shift + C on PC and Mac.
  • All four triggers on console.

Type in “testingcheats on” and press enter to enable the use of cheats. 

Step 2 – Parenting Skill Cheat 

Type stats.set_skill_level major_parenting X into the cheat bar and press enter. Replace X with the level of the skill you would like your sim to obtain. 

Note that the cheat bar is not case sensitive. Below I have written out the cheat for each level, so that you can just copy and paste the cheat code that you want to use!
