Children First
Pregnancy and Parenting
The Children First Program can teach you the things you need to know about being pregnant. Also, it teaches you the skills you need to be a good parent. This program is community-based and offers registered public health nurse home visitation to families who are expecting their first child. The program is voluntary and does not replace your health care provider or family doctor.
