A new video has been created to show new parents the types of support available to them in Cornwall.
Cornwall Council has released the three-minute video to give an overview of the 'Start for Life' programme, which provides advice and support from pregnancy until a child is two.
Start for Life also offers local support through a network of Family Hubs which can be found across Cornwall.
The animation can be found on Cornwall Council's Start for Life web page, external.
'Tricky to navigate'
Jodie Pethick, senior manager for Start for Life at the council, said: "Having a baby is a life-changing experience and every family wants to give their child the best start in life.
"But we know that sometimes that journey as a parent can be tricky to navigate, for lots of different reasons."
She added: "That's where our Start for Life programme comes in.
"If you're a new parent or are expecting the arrival of a little one I would strongly recommend checking out our Start for Life webpages and new video to find out what help and support is available to you."
