The Family Mentor service is a free service for families living in Nottingham. It is run by Small Steps Big Changes, which is hosted by Nottingham CityCare. Family Mentors are a highly trained paid peer workforce that deliver the Small Steps at Home programme of child development and preventative health support to parents of 0—4-year-olds.
Family Mentors are parents or grandparents from the communities they support who can give advice and support on lots of different topics. They can support the whole family adapt to life with a new baby. Their advice is based on the latest evidence in child development.
In our latest ICS podcast, Dr Kathy McLean (Chair of Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board) chats to Donna Sherratt (Head of the Small Steps Big Changes Programme) and Rachel Mabbott (Family Mentor) about the Family Mentor Programme in Nottingham.
