Home Visiting 

Early childhood home visiting with Parenting Communities is a direct service to families with children from birth to age 6. Home visits are completely voluntary. 

Things home visitors can help with: 

• information on child development  
• providing age-appropriate activities 
• conduct developmental screenings 
• share stress reduction strategies 
• discovering new ways to understand behaviors  
• support families with the complexities of raising a family 
• create shared experiences with children that help prepare them for their lifelong journey of learning 
• reflecting upon family life, parenting, the child(ren), and relationships in a safe, non-judgmental way 
• connect families with other families in the community 
• find access to resources in the community  
• TO HELP PARENTS BE THE PARENTS WE DREAM OF BEING
