Taking care of a child can be confusing and difficult. If you’re struggling to manage your new life as a parent or parent-to-be, you might benefit from working with a professional family life coach from Catholic Social Services.

Our home visiting services are free and available to young moms and dads. If you’re expecting a child or you’re the parent of a child who has not yet started kindergarten, you’re eligible to participate.

Our goal is to provide education and support to help pregnant and parenting young people gain confidence as you work to raise a healthy, happy child and take care of your own well-being at the same time.

Catholic Social Services’ home visiting services include:

• Assessment of your individual needs
• Home-based parenting preparation and education incorporating the Nurturing Parenting curriculum
• One-on-one support as you gain the skills and knowledge to become a nurturing parent
• Help with setting and prioritizing parenting and personal goals
• Support and advocacy to help you meet your goals
• Career development support
• Referrals to the local network of helping services

Services are available to mothers and fathers, regardless of whether you’re living together as a couple or co-parenting from separate households.
