LCO Mino Maajisewin
WHAT CAN MINO MAAJISEWIN DO FOR YOU?
Our Doula can provide continual support before, during and after childbirth. If you choose to breastfeed your baby, the program can provide support and resources to help you do so. Lots of ideas and support to handle the stress of having a new baby. Sharing information about tummy-time, potty training, reading, talking and lots more!
HOW DO I SIGN UP?
Once we receive your contact information, our Outreach Worker will schedule a time to meet you. She will explain the program to you in more detail and answer any questions you may have, so you have a better idea of what to expect if you choose to participate in the program.
The enrollment process does involve scheduling a few appointments and does take some time, but the idea is to really get to know you and your family.
One of those appointments, a 'Parent Survey' will be completed with you and your family. This helps family members identify needs and goals that she or he would like to work on during the time spent participating in the program.
The 'Parent Survey' is a way we use to take a look at your past, present, and future; a guide.
Once a family completes all paperwork and is enrolled in the program, our home visitors provide weekly home visits. Keep in mind, Mino Maajisewin can enroll a family before the child turns three months old. Once a family is enrolled, they can participate in the program until the child turns five years old.
Families start on weekly home visits. As the child gross older and families meet their individual and family goals, they can progress to lesser visits.
