Young parents

Having a baby is one of the biggest life-changing experiences you will ever have.

While this is often a happy and exciting time for you and your family, sometimes for many different reasons, pregnancy and the arrival of a new baby is not easy.

Like all parents, teenage mothers and young fathers want to do the best for their children and some manage very well; but for many their health and relationships, education, housing and financial hardship can make it more challenging time

The Sutton Health Visiting Service offers all young parents under the age of 21 when their baby is born, additional support and visits. This is called our Enhanced Parent Pathway. The Enhanced Parent Pathway is designed to be flexible and offer the help, support and information you need.
