About Help Me Grow

Who We Are

We are child development experts who know the vital role parents play in supporting their child’s healthy development. Help Me Grow Florida (HMGF) works with families of children from birth through age 8 to help them understand how their child is growing and learning.

The early years are a critical time for development, and identifying concerns early can make a meaningful difference. As part of the Help Me Grow National Network, we work in collaboration with the Florida Department of Education’s Division of Early Learning, the Children’s Forum, and community partners across the state to strengthen developmental supports and connect families to local services.

Our services are guided by each child’s needs, with no pressure—just support when it’s helpful for your family.

Help Me Grow Florida serves many counties and continues to expand its reach statewide.
