​​​​​The Baby Health Clinic (BHC) is a national digital platform designed to support parents and professionals through the critical first year of a baby’s life. BHC brings together, NHS- and NICE-aligned guidance in one accessible digital platform.

 

BHC Aims To:

• Provide evidence-based guidance on the most common questions parents ask about their baby’s health, growth and development during the first year of life (0–12 months).

• Signpost parents and professionals to NHS services, public health resources and trusted national charities for further support.

• Support families through the critical first year, a key developmental period for bonding, brain development and overall wellbeing.

• Strengthen community wellbeing by empowering parents to make informed decisions, supporting positive parenting and promoting the health and wellbeing of babies and the wider community.

• BHC aims to support the national delivery of the Healthy Child Programme by promoting children’s health, development and wellbeing, in line with the principles of Every Child Matters, helping families give their babies the best start in life.
