Children's Centres

Every family within Slough lives in a Children's Centre area.  This means that a range of services are available to you and your family at local sites in your neighbourhood, such as schools, clinics and community centres.  The aim is to provide everything that you and your children need within walking distance of your home such as:

• Childcare integrated with education for children from 3 months of age upwards
• Health services, including antenatal and post-natal support and speech and language services
• Family support services, including home visiting and practical help for parents
• Support and advice for families with children with special needs and disabilities
• Links to the Library Service, including the Bookstart scheme
• Loan of toys and equipment to families, childcare providers and agencies working with children
• Adult education and training, supported by childcare provision
• Links to Jobcentre Plus and other organisations which offer advice, guidance and support to adults seeking employment
