A Helping Hand For Parents When They Need it Most
Because Childhood Can’t Wait
Welcome to Home-Start Teignbridge
Home-Start Teignbridge offers a unique service, recruiting and training volunteers – who are usually parents themselves – to visit families at home who have a young child(ren) to offer informal, friendly and confidential support
During lockdown, our volunteers found creative ways to continue supporting families via telephone and Zoom. Volunteers have also been able to meet families outside when restrictions allow.
