Today families living in Aberdeen face more pressures than ever putting them at risk of crisis or breakdown. Our challenge is to respond to families’ needs, providing the right support, from the right person at the right time.

What happens in a child’s earliest years will affect the rest of their lives.  Babies and toddlers need nutrition, good health, safety and security, responsive care and early learning opportunities to support their growth and development.  Today families living in Aberdeen face more pressures than ever putting them at risk of crisis or breakdown. Our challenge is to respond to families’ needs, providing the right support, from the right person at the right time.

Our solution:  Making early years count 

One of the most important things that any society can do is to ensure that every baby and child receives the nurturing care they need to have the best start in life. We’re there for families when they need us most via our local community network of trained volunteers. We work alongside them to help them create a secure and loving home environment where their children can grow up happy, healthy, confident and able to achieve their full potential.

  2. Inclusive – we are open to all, value diversity and are committed to equalit
  3. Responsive – we provide the help and support which families tell us they need
