Project aims to help parents in first years of baby's life
A new project in Millom aims to tackle a growing range of mental and emotional health problems among children, by offering more support to their parents during the first 1,001 days of life, and if successful it will be spread across the county.
Copyright: Science Photo LibraryThe Good Enough Start scheme is being tried out in Millom, funded by local charities and other sources and run by a partnership of schools, health and community services.
The idea is that parents will be helped to form strong bonds with their babies, from before they are even born, until their second birthday.
The woman who came up with the idea is Janice Brockbank, a retired headteacher, who says the first two years are where a child can learn to feel secure and cope with their negative emotions.
Quote Message: A child who is emotionally secure is better able to learn, they're just ready to learn, they can make friends more easily, they can regulate their own emotions." from Janice Brockbank
