What People have to say
“The Better Beginnings Home Visitor Program was tremendously
valuable to me and my newborn baby. My home visitor provided the greatest knowledge
and advice to me when I needed it the most. She also helped me to grow my self
confidence as a new mother. Also, by using a variety of resources and mediums,
I got to discover that there were other mothers out there that were experiencing
the same feelings/problems/concerns/questions. For everything that BBNOW has done,
we are truly grateful. Thank you for your help and time” Jennifer and Summer
– Home Visiting Program.
“I am Very lucky that I have a home visitor from BBNOW. We came to Canada 1and
half years ago and my son, who was 3 years old has a language delay. BBNOW has
linked us to ‘speech and language’ services. My home visitor helps me and my
son to feel more confident, shows and role models how to improve child’s language
skills. Thank you Better Beginnings NOW and continue the good work.” Kulyah

“One and a half years ago when my son was only a couple of months old, I joined
the home visiting program. Since then, we got visited from you frequently up
to today. Here I want to say your professional job and nice manner give us such
a great help, and let us aware that Canada really takes care of babies and their
parents. I was a new immigrant in Canada and a new mother, far from my parents
and most relatives. No real experience about parenting. You visited us and brought
us valuable information and guidelines based on the real time situations: how
to play with the little one at his age, how to make baby food, how to deal with
the midnight waking up, how to train him to eat, and give my son a chance to
talk and play using some English. Our talks covered topics that we were interested
in at that time period for my son. The ideas from you not only answer my questions
but also make me more confident to be a mom. We really appreciate what you’ve
done for us, thank you very much and thanks for this great program.” Julia –

informed and prepared.” Sally - Prenatal Nutrition Program

“This program was excellent. One with fun, experience, talking with other parents, knowing what, when, how the child grows and would benefit. The staff always calls and reminds us about the program and tells us briefly what will be there in the session. Knowing, talking with other parents gives us hope and learn to be better, best parents. Shows and topic are also very good, get good knowledge about it if we are not aware they explain us very well. Better to begin early, take best out of best and be good parents.” Sauna – Early Parenting Program
