Children’s centre are places where families with children under 5 years can go to meet other parents and carers in their community.
Each children’s centre is slightly different but you will often find groups and activities, midwife and health visiting appointments, baby clinics, infant feeding support and parenting courses.
Children’s centres are welcoming places where you can go if you need some extra support. They are experts in helping you find the support you need.
It is important that we all work together to keep children and young people safe from harm.
