At 1-2 years, your baby might be taking their first steps, starting to talk and being more active.
You can join one of Brent's Family Wellbeing Centres that offer a range of stay and play sessions for families to play and learn together.

Other support
Domestic abuse
If you are experiencing domestic abuse or if you are worried about your child's safety, remember that you are not alone and there is help and support available from organisations such as Refuge and Advance.
