Register For Nurturing Program Classes

Monday, June 9th, 2008

The Nurturing Program Nurturing is the ability to care for and foster growth in yourself and others.  The Nurturing Program is a family based educational program that promotes nurturing within in the family.  Anyone who wants to build better relationships and communication in their family can benefit from the program.   

The Nurturing Program is unique in that both parents and their children are involved in the learning process.  Children are in a class for their age group, learning the same subject that the parents are learning in their class.  Families than implement what they have learned throughout the week and discuss changes at the next class.  Subjects include growth and development, communication and cooperation, effective guidance, empowering children to make healthy decisions, nutrition and much more. Wells Co. has been fortunate to obtain financial support from a grant through PCAND (Prevent Child Abuse in North Dakota) to make the program available to our community again in September.  Classes are on Monday evenings, from 6:00-8:30 pm., for 12 weeks. Childcare and a light supper are provided. 

Quotes:      “It has been powerful the way the group has worked through individual issues and the connectedness that couples emerge with.  This session has been nothing short of a miracle.”  - Donna Edinger, Participant 

“It’s been so nice to learn that other families are facing the same issues that we are.  We talk about ways to address them and walk away with a lot more confidence.”  - Anonymous Participant 

“This program is wonderful.  I only wish they had it back when my kids were young.  Every family should have this information!”  - Jane Swanson, Helper 

“Everyone is so nice there.  In addition to the positive changes we’ve made as a family, we’ve gained some really good friends.”  - Anonymous Participant 

Classes are from September 8th – November 24th.   Pre registration is required.  Contact Co. Health at 547-3756 or Tammy Neurohr at 324-4769 Ext. 342  Enrollment is limited, so register your family now!

Tips For Keeping Kids Safe Around the Water

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

*Maintain constant supervision. Watch your children around water, no matter what their skills are or how shallow the water. For younger children, practice “Reach Supervision” by staying within an arm’s length reach.

*Don’t rely on substitutes. The use of flotation devices and inflatable toys can not replace parental supervision. Such devices can shift position, lose aiur or slip out form underneath, leaving the child in a dangerous situation.

*Enroll children in swimming lessons. Your decision to provide your child with an early aquatic experience is a gift that will have infinite rewards.
