"Many thanks for the support you have given this family. Your usual high quality standard!"
A quote from a Staffordshire Moorlands Health visitor.
If you ask for Home-Start's help you can be sure of total confidentiality and you can be sure that your volunteer will have had an enhanced level criminal records check, and have completed an 8 week training course with us prior to being matched with a family needing support. To ask for our help, contact us using the Contact Us link above.

Is your child between 12 and 24 months' of age?
If so, you may be eligible for BookStart Corner - Home-Start Staffordshire Moorlands is able to offer a series of short, free, home-visits to families in certain parts of the district to share lots of free BookStart resources which will be great fun for your child and you.
BookStart Corner and Home-Start aim to support you as a parent/carer and give your child the best possible start in life.
Research shows that snuggling up and reading with your child is hugely beneficial to them. It aids parent/child bonding, improves speech and language development and will help them to get ready for nursery and school. Find out more by contacting us at the office to set up a home visit.
