Brighter beginnings: the first 2000 days
Mid Coast 4 Kids is very excited to be championing Brighter Beginnings: the first 2000 days, a NSW Government initiative which is based on evidence that shows why the early years of life (from conception to age five) are important for health and wellbeing outcomes across the lifespan.
Evidence such as 90% of a child’s brain development occurs by age 5 and early experiences in the first 2000 days of life can have flow-on impacts in every decade of their lifetime.
The Brighter Beginnings initiative is a “one stop shop” of resources for families when expecting a baby and throughout their child’s early life, and includes tools and resources to keep track of health and development milestones, access financial support, find early childhood education and care, start primary school, and return to work as well as emotional and legal support for parents.
Early experiences in the first 2000 days of life can have flow-on impacts in every decade of a child’s lifetime.
With almost 100,000 births per year in NSW. Brighter Beginnings aims to provide families with the information they need, when they need it to make their decisions and empower families with clear, reliable and timely information

One of the valuable online resources is the Learn the Signs, Act Early Milestone Monitoring Tools that are in the Blue Book and help parents track their child’s development. Parents should speak to a Child and Family Health Nurse located in Child and Family Health Centres or doctor if they have concerns about how their child is growing, developing or behaving.
