Health Before Pregnancy!

As a childcare provider, you work with young children every day. Throughout your work day, do you ever stop and think about your own family? 

Perhaps you and your partner are thinking about starting a family. Maybe you already have a child and are hoping to have another.  Regardless of whether or not you are thinking about getting pregnant for the first, second, or third time, now is the time to start planning. 

The time before pregnancy is known as the preconception period. During this time men and women need to make healthy choices to help the baby get off to a great start.
