At Home-Start York, we know that being a parent isn't always easy and that life can bring stress and challenges that get in the way of an enjoyable family life.

We support parents with pre school children, helping them give their children the best possible start in life. Offering a unique, confidential family support service, Home-Starts approach has a proven, lasting, positive impact on the development of children and the health and well-being of their parents. We provide support to families with children under 5 who are finding parenting a challenge due to external stresses such as depression, loneliness, illness or disability.  Our team of volunteers visit a parent in their home each week for a few hours to support, empower and motivate, encouraging positive change.
