Our experienced staff and trained volunteers help families with at least one child under five years old deal with the challenges they face. We support parents as they learn to cope, improve their confidence and build better lives for their children.
Depending on where you live and your specific needs, we can provide support through home-visiting or in a small group setting.
Home-Start in Hampshire may be able to help you by offering you a home-visiting volunteer or a place at one of our family groups if you:
