Health and Development with Superhero’s.
We want every child in Waltham Forest to get the Best Start in Life. This means ensuring all parents and carers can access the support they need to help their children’s growth and development. To keep up to date with the latest news, events, and information sign up to receive our newsletter.
Meet our Best Start in Life superheroes.
A group of six unique characters will help us and our Early Years partners engage with families in Waltham Forest. Find Helpful Hakeem, Curious Carina, and their other super-friends at our brilliant Family Hubs where you can get information, advice, and support on a wide range of topics including:
- Family support
- Health
- Child development
- Free early years education
- Training and development.
These sessions aim to help with your child’s communication and social skills. They will also support in building support networks with other parents and carers in the borough.
All parents, guardians, and carers are welcome at our hubs. Visit the Waltham Forest Local Authority website to find out what’s on at your nearest Family Hub or visit in person.
