Nurse Home Visitor Program
Colorado Nurse Home Visitor Program, delivered by local programs
Can I get a nurse to support me at home through pregnancy and my baby's first two years?
Needs recheck — read this as research, not as a benefit you can rely on yet.
What this is
The Nurse Home Visitor Program provides nurse home visits for eligible first-time mothers, with services continuing through the child's second birthday.
Why it matters after birth
Two years of support from a nurse who visits you, rather than appointments you have to travel to with a newborn.
You may qualify if
For eligible first-time mothers. TMO has not verified the exact eligibility criteria or the enrollment timing, so neither is stated here — ask the local programme or your provider.
What you actually get
Nurse home visits covering your health and your baby's, and early child development, through the child's second birthday.
How long it lasts
Services continue through the child's second birthday.
What it costs
Not verified. Ask the local programme whether there is any cost.
How to use it
Ask your prenatal provider, your regional organization, or your local public-health agency how to be referred and whether the programme is enrolling in your area.
What you'll need
Not verified; ask the local programme.
Important limitations
This is for eligible first-time mothers, and local availability and capacity determine whether you can actually join. TMO has not verified the eligibility criteria, enrollment timing, or official source URLs, which is why this profile is labelled Needs recheck. Ask early, because home-visiting programmes commonly start during pregnancy.
How it works with other benefits
It sits alongside your Health First Colorado coverage, your doula support, and Prenatal Plus rather than replacing any of them.
Finding a provider or service
Your prenatal provider, your regional organization, and your local public-health agency are the routes to a referral.
Language & cultural access
Not verified for this programme; ask the local programme. The Nurse Advice Line, 800-283-3221, operates in English and Spanish.
If you do not qualify
If this programme does not fit, ask your regional organization what other home and community support exists in your area, and ask about Prenatal Plus during pregnancy.
Access in practice
Being covered and being able to use it are different things. This is what the sources say about actually reaching this support.
- Where it is available
- Delivered by local programmes; availability varies by area.
- Provider availability
- Local capacity determines enrolment and is not published here.
In plain terms
What this means for you
If this is your first baby, a nurse may be able to visit you at home until your child turns 2. We have not been able to confirm the exact joining rules, so ask your provider or your regional organisation early in pregnancy rather than waiting.
Your next step
What to do next
Ask your prenatal provider or your regional organization whether the Nurse Home Visitor Program serves your area, whether you are eligible, and whether they are enrolling now.
