Support for families in Dorset, from conception to two years old

We offer specialised parent-infant relationship talking therapy, attachment-led infant massage courses, online support and workforce training for professionals.

We are community based, working through Family Hubs, GP's premises and partners throughout Dorset. Our services can be accessed online, enabling us to reach families across Dorset.

We want to support you so you can take care of your baby in the best possible way.

You’re welcome to take part in one or all of our services. We can guide you to understand which one may suit you best.

This is an exciting opportunity to help shape the future of DorPIP and make a lasting impact on the families we serve.

We are looking for passionate and dedicated people to join our Board of Trustees.

Family Hub Christmas opening

Three of our family hubs will remain open over Christmas for our families and partners to access. These are Boscombe, Kinson and West Howe, and Old Town and are open on Christmas eve until 4pm, reopening on 27 December. They will also be closed on 1 January 2025. You can find out more about the family hubs here.  

Workforce Training

Our training course equips professionals with the essential knowledge and skills to provide trauma informed, high-quality care to families. Designed for all staff working with infants and their parents or caregivers, from pregnancy through the second year of life, our training ensures everyone is on the same page. You and your team will learn to identify needs and deliver the best care to pregnant parents and those with babies, helping you provide consistent and compassionate support to the families you serve.
