Welcome to Home-Start Wirral - We provide help and support for families who have at least one child under the age of five and who live in Wirral,  to help give children the best possible start in life.  Home-Start supports parents as they grow in confidence, strengthen their relationships with their children and widen their links with the local community.

Many parents, desperate to do the right thing to give their children the best start in life, find they are fighting against the odds.

What some parents may see as a 'simple trip out to the shops' for a parent who has triplets in tow can seem impossible.

Families need support for many reasons. Perhaps they are struggling with...

  • Isolation
  • Sickness
  • Disabilities
  • Mental health
  • Domestic abuse
  • Multiple births / several pre-school children
  • Difficult relationships

Home-Start Wirral is highly rated by both statutory and non-statutory agencies as a quality service.

We provide non-judgemental, practical help and emotional support for families.

The service we provide is tailored to each family so that we give them support where they need it, when they need it, and how they need it.

We give families confidence and the ability to cope.

Families seem to welcome the support because it is so informal and based simply on friendship, trust and non-judgemental understanding.
