Help Me Grow

Help Me Grow is a program for Ohio's expectant parents, newborns, infants and toddlers that provides health and developmental services so that children start school healthy and ready to learn. 

Services are designed with your family's concerns and goals in mind. Help Me Grow promotes the well-being of young children through home-based specialized services and public awareness, with a special emphasis on early intervention and prevention. 

Along with parents' knowledge and their unqualified commitment to their babies, recent research about how fast babies' brains develop highlights the importance of the first three years for getting babies off to a good start. The first three years of a child's life are the building blocks for learning and development and Help Me Grow is a dedicated partner in helping your child grow. 

Help Me Grow is a voluntary program for Ohio's expectant parents, newborns, infants and toddlers that provides health and developmental services so children start school healthy and ready to learn.
