About Us
We know that being a new parent can be overwhelming, and we want to make sure that you have the resources and support you need.
Providing free support for families across Hartlepool
The Family Hubs work primarily with families with children from 0 to 19 (0-25 with SEND). They provide integrated childcare and education; health services; family support; and access to Job Centre Plus.
These are where our Family Support Workers, Family Hub Workers, Health Visitors, Midwifery Nurses and Community Nursery Nurses are based.
One stop shop for free support
The Family Hubs offer groups, parenting support, health visitor clinics, development reviews when your child is aged 9-12 months and 2-2.5 years old and advice and guidance on things like feeding your baby/child, toilet training, routines, safe sleeping, introducing solid foods and breastfeeding.
Wide range of groups for children
The Family Hubs run a wide range of groups for children on a weekly basis, such as sing and sign, free play time, baby weigh in, breastfeeding support, story time and so much more.
