Nutritious Beginnings

Offered in Drayton Valley, Wetaskiwin, and surrounding areas, our Nutritious Beginnings Program focuses on mothers who face a higher risk of having a difficult pregnancy and are unlikely to utilize other prenatal services. Participants have the option of coming to our locations or having home visits. They are provided extra support and resources regarding prenatal care, nutrition, and best practices for their new baby.
