There are a few roles that might incorporate 'parent teaching' with other things too: children's centre practitioner, social worker, family support worker, home-school liaison worker, work for a charity or organisation that runs parenting classes etc.
My dad is a child psychiatrist and his job involves teaching parents to parent. Ironic, considering what a **** parent he was during my childhood, but there we go.

Sorry but this did make me smile. Hope things are going better for you now.

Something like this would probably be an example of what you mean.
