Parents as First Teachers (PAFT)
PAFT is based on the philosophy that parents are their children's first
and most important teachers, and offers support and guidance to parents
in this role.
PAFT provides free, practical, effective help to families.
This support lasts from before your baby is born until your child's third birthday.
