Healthy Families Burnett County Home Visiting

Healthy Families Burnett County Home Visiting is a voluntary home visiting program designed to support families who are expecting or have newborn babies.

Healthy Families Burnett County Home Visiting is available to families prenatally until the child reaches 5 years old. Its purpose is to provide guidance and support to parents to get babies off to the best start.

Since babies don’t come with their own set of instructions, taking care of them, especially newborns, can be confusing and stressful.

Home Visiting is geared toward helping relieve some of this stress and to help cope with other situations at the same time.
