Visiting Parents Program

Visiting Parents Program - is available to provide new parents (or family members, friends) with the opportunity to visit with a trained volunteer parent.  We understand the many emotions that you may be experiencing.  A visit may simply help you to realize you are not alone. Presentations have also been made at the three Winnipeg birthing hospitals, making staff aware of our program.  A referral for a visit can be made to the MDSS by anyone, providing the parents have given their permission. Please contact: susancearns@shaw.ca.
