Rhode Island's Home Visiting Program
What questions do families ask our home visitors?
Families often have questions about raising a child.
New mothers wonder about caring for their babies:
- What tips can you give me for my babys first bath?
- What does it mean when my baby cries?
- Am I crying too much?
Parents want to know about their young childs growth, health and safety:
- My child is a picky eater. How can I make sure he eats healthy foods?When should I take my child to the doctor?How do I know if my child is growing and learning as expected?
- How can I make my home safe for my child?
Families can be linked to community services:
- I will be going back to workwhere can I find daycare for my baby?I have no insurancehow can I get healthcare for my child?
- My child is lead poisoned. What services are available to us?
