Health Visiting Support
Did you know that Enfield has a health visiting service for families who live in the borough to support you and your child as they begin to grow?
Health visitors are nurses or midwives who have undertaken additional training in community public health nursing.
In Enfield there are four health visiting teams: Bowes, Highlands, Forest Green and Moorfields. They are based geographically, so where you live will decide which health visiting team will be supporting you and your family.
Health Child Clinics
You can attend any healthy child clinic in the borough. They are held in community spaces such as children’s centres and local libraries. Please remember to bring your red book.
