Home Visiting
The Home Visiting program brings the same support services provided at the family support center to the homes of families who may not be ready to come into the center, for reasons such as maternity leave, complicated pregnancies, children with special needs or behavioral challenges, etc. The In-Home Interventionist (IHI) supports families through home-based services, focusing on the needs and wants of each family. This program helps parents enhance the quality of parent, child, and family interaction. Each visit includes a fun, parent and child activity, exploring and appreciating the value of learning through play. Family well-being discussions are integrated into each visit to help keep children safe and build strong families, assisting parents with short-term goal setting, planning, and developing problem-solving skills. Visits also include a focus on development-centered parenting topics:
- Health
- Safety
- Nutrition
- Sleep
- Transitions/Routines
- Discipline
The In-Home Interventionist is trained in and utilizes the evidence-based, Parents As Teachers (PAT) home visiting model. The goal of the PAT curriculum is to
- Increase parent knowledge of early childhood development and improve parenting practices
- Provide early detection of developmental delays and health issues
- Prevent child abuse and neglect
- Increase children’s school readiness and school success
We offer flexible weekly or biweekly, 60-90 minutes home visits. Allowing us to partner with you in the comfort of your own home!
