Home-Start York is an established charity offering family-focused, strengths-based support to parents with preschool children. Providing a unique, in-home, voluntary service, they fill a local community need by reaching families, who are finding parenting difficult due to environmental, physical, and emotional stresses. In April 2023 they launch an exciting new project which will provide practical and emotional support through weekly volunteer visits, for mothers antenatally from 30+ weeks pregnant, up to their babies being around six months old. Trained volunteers will offer guidance and compassion to empower women to become the mothers, they want to be, resulting in happier mothers with positive birth preparation and stronger bonds with their babies. Positive intervention in early years can prevent issues from developing further and enables parents to feel confident to find their own way forward. Anyone wanting to find out more about how to get involved should contact 07519 976946 or visit www.homestartyork.org.
