Family and Child Ed

Family and Child Education (FACE) supports, educates, and empowers families as they help children grow. Serving Saint John, Sussex, St. Stephen, and surrounding areas in New Brunswick, FACE offers free, flexible programs for families with children from infancy to age eight. Its experienced educators provide hands-on support through in-home programs and parenting groups, helping parents identify developmental opportunities and build practical skills to support their child’s development.

Families can contact FACE directly through its self-referral process; a referral from a case worker, teacher, or physician is not required. Professionals, including educators and health care providers, can also submit referrals with the client’s consent. FACE offers developmental check-ins, group programs, workshops, and family-centered events focused on early development and stronger family connections. The organization also provides developmental milestone information, resources, and support for families.

Based in Saint John, FACE welcomes feedback from families and invites community members to donate to help children explore opportunities, build confidence, and develop skills. Families can reach the organization toll-free at 1-855-383-5437.
