I feel this programme should be made universal and available

About: Children’s Services / HENRY programme

(as a parent/guardian),

I have just completed the Henry Programme: Healthy Families, Right from the Start. At my babys 6-9 month review, our child health assistant Emma recommended it. Having just had my 3rd baby- I felt I had lost a bit of confidence, structure/routine within our homelife.

This programme helped me regain this and more. Emma was amazing! A superstar at her job! She facilitated each section of the programme so well; showing care, empathy and providing lots of useful tips and resources! We loved her weekly visits and discussing what we do well within the home as well as what we could work on too.

I feel this programme should be made universal and available for all mothers, antenatal and postnatal. It made me look at parenting in a whole new way! Thank you

I am absolutely delighted that you have taken the time to post your story. Life can be very overwhelming at times. It's lovely to hear that the HENRY programme has helped you to regain confidence, routines and structure within your home.

I am very appreciative of your kind comments. I love my job and these comments really mean the world to me.
