Andrea Baxter – Family support worker (Specialism parenting)

I am Andrea Baxter, a Family Support worker for Chexs. I work within various schools in the local area. CHEXS is an integral part of the local support network and we work alongside other professionals in the community. Our aim is to support families through challenging times.

The charity offers support and advice for a variety of different situations. For instance; parenting, housing, benefits, debt, anxiety and many more.

I have a passion for helping people with money management/benefits advice and routines and boundaries.

The Family support team runs workshops for parents, guardians and carers to help support them. Our workshops include talks about anxiety, healthy eating, routines & boundaries and crafts sessions.

We are regularly on hand to provide 1 to 1 parent support sessions at schools which support families through difficult times. You may see me around your school from time to time. Please say Hi.

Working closely with our GROWTH team means that we can support the whole families as well as the children within our partner schools.

I enjoy meeting new families and supporting them through difficult times. My days can be challenging at times, but it is so very rewarding when progress is made and families have a happier, healthier homelife.
