What happens at an EarlyON drop-in

You bring your child and stay with them. Staff run play, songs and stories, and you can ask about development, feeding or sleep. There is no fee and no spot to wait for.

Some centres also run programs that need registration. Those are listed separately on each centre page. The City's EarlyON page.
