We understand that having difficulties while bringing up young children is not unusual and can happen to anybody, whatever their situation. As a parent you might ask for help if you are:

  • feeling isolated
  • experiencing stress caused by family conflict
  • having trouble managing your children’s behaviour
  • struggling to cope with disabilities or ill health
  • suffering bereavement or relationship difficulties
  • experiencing discrimination or prejudice
  • victim to domestic violence, alcoholism or drug misuse

Any family with children under 5 can ask Home-Start for help.
