Dyanne:

“I'm having twins. Unexpected. Stress. The midwife told me about the Home-Start volunteers. We immediately clicked with Yara. I am very happy that I can talk to her about everything about my pregnancy. She knows a lot and knows everything and everyone in the neighborhood. She supports me in preparing for my birth: room, clothes, requesting childcare. Yara has only been coming for four weeks, it seems much longer. It already reassures me a lot more.”

'A listening ear or an arm around your shoulder from someone who sympathizes with you when you are going through a tough time: that can do wonders. We often hear from families that the support from Home-Start Apeldoorn is good for them. Home-Start Apeldoorn prevents problems from getting worse, that is the power of this support for families with children.' Haske, coordinator Home-Start Apeldoorn
