Healthy Early Years

This multi-strand professional development programme empowers early years practitioners to champion healthy eating, nutrition, and physical development in their settings. Through face-to-face training, virtual networks and visits to your setting, the initiative supports practitioners to embed healthy routines, engage families, and create inclusive, active environments where all children can thrive. 

In September we contacted selected settings with a letter from the Director of Children’s Services and the Director of Public Health in Hampshire, sharing some information about the Supervised Toothbrushing Programme in our county.We would like to share some further information with identified settings who will be invited to join the roll-out of this initiative. Watch our 10-minute YouTube video of a recorded briefing delivered by Public Health Nursing and Services for Young Children.
