Help Me Grow is a program for expectant parents, and caregivers of newborns, infants, and toddlers. The program provides health and developmental services with the goal of children starting school healthy and ready to learn. Our program is modeled after the Parents as Teachers (PAT) home visiting program meaning that we provide services that are evidence-based for healthy outcomes for children.

Help Me Grow provides home-based parenting education to caregivers using the evidence-based curriculum Parents as Teachers (PAT). We answer any questions you have about your child, and we help connect you with resources in the community. We are here to help you be the best parent you can be!
