Information and support
Signpost families to information and support from the Staffordshire Family and Wellbeing 0-19 Service or Health Visiting Team covering Stoke on Trent, they are a knowledgeable resource in child and family health and wellbeing. They can offer parents/carers advice and support in the early weeks and years on feeding, sleep, behaviour, vaccinations, minor illnesses, mental health and many more topics. All of which relate to a child’s development.
Attending baby and toddler groups is a great way of promoting a child’s social development and also allows children to get to know others.
These are run by local groups such as, Staffordshire libraries, Stoke on Trent Libraries or Staffordshire Children’s centres.
