Warm Welcome Visits

Baby Bear Hugs offers the Bright Beginnings' Warm Welcome visit to parents of newborns in their home or community settings. These visits offer broad-based support to parents and caretakers, providing information on health, safety, childcare, community resources, health insurance, early brain development, and highlight the importance of reading to children from birth.

The visit offers a Warm Welcome to newborns in the state of Colorado and promotes positive parent-child interactions. Visits can be conducted with parents of children prenatal to age three and materials include specifics for parents on activities and games they can play with their child to stimulate healthy growth and development.

This is a one time contact with parents following the birth of their baby.  The visitor will:
