Small Steps at Home
Are you pregnant, or do you have a child under 1? Sign up for Small Steps at Home and get a Family Mentor.


Helping mums and dads in local communities share their experience of parenting
Adapting to life with a new baby is a challenge.
Whether it’s feeding, sleeping, or teething, we all like some friendly support sometimes. SSBC’s Family Mentors are here to help.
The service is free for families who live in an SSBC area.
Get a Family Mentor
You can get a Family mentor if:
- Your child is under 1
- You live in an SSBC area: Aspley, Bulwell, Hyson Green & Arboretum, or St Ann's

Step One
Enter your postcode to check that you live in an SSBC area.
Step Two
Complete the form below. A member of your local Family Mentor team will get in touch.
“Parents tell us the things they love most about having a Family Mentor are having someone who will listen and be there for them, and being given the best information at the time when they most need it.”
Lorraine, Bulwell Family Mentor Manager
“My Family Mentor is amazing. She's been extremely supportive, professional and kind. She's been there whenever I needed to vent, or needed support. She has been my guide through raising my kids and has helped me in ways that I can’t even put into words. I have gained so much confidence through her. Thank you SSBC.”
Pearl, Aspley
