Health Visitors are all qualified nurses, who have gone on to do another year specialising in child development and health promotion. They will be able to advise you on all aspects of development and health promotion until your child is 5 years old. Many of them also have additional qualifications in a range of fields, such as midwifery and paediatric nursing.
If at any time during your child’s first five years, you have concerns around behaviour, development, feeding or anything that is causing you anxiety, then please contact your health visiting team.
