Do you need some advice about your baby’s or child’s health or development? You might have questions about their growth, development, behaviour, sleep or feeding. You can text a member of our Health Visiting team on 07520 634909 and get advice and support on these and a range of other health and development issues. You can send a text at anytime, and we will reply between 9am and 4.30pm on weekdays (excluding bank holidays). A member of the team can offer advice, sign post you to other services or when appropriate arrange for you to see a member of the team.

Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust runs a confidential secure text messaging service for parents of children aged 0-5 years called ChatHealth. The service operates Monday to Friday between 9am and 4pm, excluding bank holidays. All texts will be responded to by a health visitor within 24 hours. Outside of the service working hours, you’ll receive a message back to inform you that your text will be responded to once the service reopens.
