    What support is available?

    We provide support across a range of children's centres, family hubs, community centres and outdoor spaces. We also provide both group and one-to-one support online via Zoom and WhatsApp.

    Support is tailored to service user preference, and moves gently, but with focus. We aim to normalise the difficulties of caring for a baby, decrease isolation, and empower parents with resources and information.

    Our St Helens programme is also commissioned to deliver the Anna Freud Reflective Parenting course – a psycho-educational programme to enhance bond and attachment, encouraging sensitive and thoughtful parenting.

    Project staff Claire and Steph (Halton & Warrington), and Lauren and Kelly (St Helens) are the first point of contact for all enquires – they are at the end of the phone for those interested in support, and are ready to liaise with any of our brilliant local partner organisations to make sure care is ‘joined up’ for our service users.
