We believe that the most significant individuals in a child's life are their parents. Home Visitation is designed to support new parents by providing information on their child's development, positive parenting and the parent child relationship. Home Visits begin after the birth of the baby, or during the third trimester of pregnancy. This is a voluntary program. The parent may choose to discontinue service at any time. Services are free and confidential. Families are referred by a public health nurse, self referral or community agencies. HOW DO HOME VISITS WORK? Home Visitor meets with family regularly for an hour a week in the comfort of their home. Connects families with the resources in their community. Promotes positive parent child relationships. Shares information on growth, development and positive parenting. Shares developmentally based learning activities. WHAT IS A HOME VISITOR?
A Home Visitor is a person trained to provide support and encouragement as a family navigates their way through becoming a new parent.
