Positive Beginnings
This is a Parent and Toddler group with speech and language therapy, Homestart and Community Nursery Nurse support.
Families are generally referred to the group. This might be for a reason such as postnatal depression, isolation, family problems, a child with a disability, or anything else which is affecting someone in the family.
Families may also self refer if they speak to their health visitor, community nursery nurse or the children’s centre manager.
There is a weekly programme of fun activities which includes a healthy snack time.
Do contact us or speak to your health visitor if you would like to attend this group.
Let’s Talk
