Sure Start Children's Centres
What is a Trafford Sure Start Children's Centre?

Sure Start is a Government initiative which aims to give every child the best possible start in life. Children's Centres are places where children under 5 and their families can access services and information from a range of professionals. They work together to meet the needs of individual children.
Some children's centres have a dedicated building in the community they serve, other children's centres are information points based in existing community buildings such as libraries and schools.
Here is an example of some of the activities on offer:

  • Chatterbox: Helps children to develop early language and communication skills.
  • Baby massage: Teaches parents techniques, which relax their baby and helps with their sleep.
  • Play and Stay: Offers activities for children to learn through play.
  • Information: Available on employment opportunities, childcare and training.
  • Incredible years: For parents to develop skills to deal with everyday behaviour.
  • Family Support: Offering individual support for families in their home or in the centre.

  • Plus many more....

Contact your local Children's Centre for more information.
