What is a Children's Centre?
Children’s centres offer the best start in life for every child. They provide information and services for families with young children and aim to build on good existing services rather than starting new ones where it’s not necessary.
Children’s Centres are being developed so that children under five and their families can benefit from a range of flexible services and support when they need it and in a convenient location. Services may be run from different venues within the local area.
As a family you may need to know about antenatal and post natal care, breastfeeding support, parent and toddler groups, child minders, pre-schools and other early year’s settings. You may have worries about your child’s sleeping patterns, feeding and behaviour problems.
There will be services or activities supporting you in the everyday challenges that parents face in bringing up young children. The Children’s Centre should be your one-stop shop for information and support.
