Testimonials

“[When] I found myself being a first time mom at the age of 40,  I was introduced into the Healthy Families program and it’s been a blessing to me and my daughter Luna. The lady who visits me has taught me so much to be a better mother for my daughter, learning milestones and how to help her progress into becoming mobile and learning. My daughter’s smiles and laughter mean the world to me, and this program helped me make her happy and be the best mom I can be for her. The guidance have been invaluable.  [My FSS] is wonderful!!!  And has helped me immensely. I didn’t have my mom or any help other than the guidance from [her], and I’ve made Luna a happy baby with her helping me.”

“We had some initial hesitation when we joined the program in 2016, but [our FSS] has really been the support I needed always. She always gave me fun activities to do with Zach, ideas on food, and ways to help with behavior. SO MUCH MORE than I ever thought.”

“I have been with Healthy Families since I was pregnant with my first child and she is now 14 months and I’m having her little brother in January.  All the women there are great.  My worker is the best but maybe I’m a little biased!  They have given me formula and diapers when I didn’t have the money to get them and I am forever grateful. They have been able to answer questions I had or connect me to a breastfeeding consultant when I needed help. They have been a great deal of help and they help with my son with information I might need.  They also have activities you can do with your kids. They are a great company to be with.”

“My home visitor has been working with me and my family for almost 3 years.  She came into our lives when my son had just come home from NICU.  She has empowered me to be the best mother I can be. When my son was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy, she was there for me. This woman who came into our lives, who did not know us at all, has made us a better family.  I did not think I needed help at first, which is a thought most parents have.   I just want to thank her and Healthy Families for the amazing impact  this program has had on our family.”

“I definitely looked forward to visits with [our FSS] and knew I could tell her anything. She’s definitely a gem and I’m forever thankful that this program brought her into mine and Ava’s life. We will miss her, but I made her promise to keep in touch. Thank you for blessing me with her and this program! We had nothing but great experiences with [her] and HF!” -A mother exiting the program
