Everyone wants the best for their children, but with so much conflicting advice it can be hard to know what to do for the best as a parent, especially in the early years.
Research shows that the key ingredients to ensuring babies and young children have a
healthy start in life are:
Parenting confidence
Physical activity for little ones
What children and families eat
Family lifestyle habits
Enjoying life as a family
The programme covers these 5 themes across 9 weeks and provides everything you need to
help get your little one off to a great start.
