The Mini-MEND Programme is a FREE course for parents or carers with children aged 2 to 4. It offers a fun and creative environment for families to learn how to make healthier lifestyle choices and ensure their children have the best possible start in life.
Mini-MEND’s ten weekly sessions combine parent-toddler active play, snack time, parent discussion groups and children’s crèche-style creative play each session lasting 90 minutes.
Mini-MEND helps to encourage young children to try new things and shows parents creative ways to get their children to taste and enjoy different fruits, vegetables and other healthy snacks. If your child is a fussy or ‘picky’ eater, or tends to refuse food it could be particularly helpful to head off problems in the future.
Places on the Mini MEND Programme are available on a first come, first served basis. Families interested in participating should contact Sarah Dewar on 01621 727343 or email sarah.dewar@midessexpct.nhs.uk Please note a parent or carer must accompany each child to every session. |
