New Parent Pack
One of the first needs of parents is accurate and current information about Down syndrome. Our New Parent information pack explores the feelings experienced by many parents, answers common questions and concerns and provides practical tips on feeding and development.
Ideally the hospital will have shown you their copy of the pack when your baby was born. Please contact us for your own copy (free for new families).
