Humanitas Home-Start

Parenting is a challenge for every parent! Home-Start volunteers are happy to help!

Parenting is usually a lot of fun. As a family, you also have a tough time at times.

Do you recognise this in your home?

My child does not listen
Baby cries a lot
I am really tired
The eldest sits on 'r mobile a lot
My son finishes his homework way too late
It's too messy around dinner time
How will that work with twins soon?
I am suddenly on my own
I just arrived in the Netherlands and don't know anyone here
I don't have a moment's peace. Stressed. Tense.
I don't want to get angry with the children
After a busy working day, children require a lot of attention

Usually you solve the problems yourself, but sometimes you run out of energy. Would you like help raising your children? Do you miss someone you can talk to about it? Then ask one of our volunteers for support. They have experience in parenting! And they are specially trained for it.
