What we provide
The health visiting service in South Gloucestershire
is made up of health visitors and community nursery
nurses who work in the community with children and
families from the antenatal period until they go to
school. The service offers support for all parents of
all children (from pregnancy to age 5), whatever their
circumstances.
Health visitors
Health Visitors are qualified nurses or midwives with
a specialist qualification in public health for children,
young people and families. They work alongside
families offering support and information around
parenthood and early parenting. Their training in
public health enables them to provide evidence
based support and information on a wide range of
topics that can affect the health and wellbeing of
families.
Community nursery nurses
Community nursery nurses also work alongside
families, using their knowledge of child development
to support parents to understand their child’s
behaviour, build a loving relationship with their child
and enjoy their parenting journey.
