The Infant Feeding, Family Diet and Nutrition team are pleased to be able to offer the Poppy Programme to families with children between the ages of 2 to 6 years old who live in North Yorkshire. The Poppy Programme has been developed to provide useful evidence based advice, information and resources to support families with young children to develop healthy lifestyles.
The early years is a critical time in relation to promoting a child's health and wellbeing, learning, social and emotional development. This 4 week programme aims to build parents confidence, motivation and understanding in relation to healthy lifestyles thereby ensuring every child gets the best start possible. It will also signpost families to other useful services, support and information such as health and wellbeing, parenting programmes, food insecurity/cost of living, sleep etc. The Poppy Programme is a free, confidential virtual programme however face to face workshops can be organised if deemed appropriate.
