Dear New Mexico Families
Bringing a new baby home is a special time, and Family Connects New Mexico (FCNM) is here to ensure you feel confident and supported every step of the way. This free program, offered by the New Mexico Early Childhood Education and Care Department (ECECD), provides in-home visits from registered nurses to families with newborns during the first few weeks after birth. Our goal is to help you feel confident, capable, and connected—because no one should have to navigate postpartum and the early stages alone.
Why families choose Family Connects: Family Connects is a nationally recognized, evidence-based model delivering measurable benefits. Independent studies show: 50% fewer emergency room visits and hospital stays for babies in their first year.
Mothers are 30% less likely to experience postpartum depression or anxiety. There's a 15% increase in families utilizing local resources and support services. What to expect during your home visit: A registered nurse will visit your home around three weeks after your baby is born. They provide personalized support on topics like newborn care (weight checks, feeding, soothing tips), maternal health (postpartum checks, mental health screenings), and connect you to local resources such as child care, mental health support, or parenting groups. How it works: If you deliver at a participating University of New Mexico hospital in Bernalillo, Sandoval, Cibola, McKinley, Torrance, or Valencia counties, you're automatically eligible. A Family Connects nurse will connect with you at the hospital or shortly after birth to schedule a visit. Typically, families receive one to three visits over two to three months, tailored to their individual needs.

Estimadas familias de Nuevo México
La llegada de un bebé a casa es un momento especial, y Family Connects Nuevo México (FCNM) está aquí para garantizar que se sientan seguros y apoyados en cada paso del proceso. Este programa gratuito, ofrecido por el Departamento de Educación y Cuidado de la Primera Infancia de Nuevo México (ECECD), ofrece visitas a domicilio de enfermeras tituladas a familias con recién nacidos durante las primeras semanas después del nacimiento. Nuestro objetivo es ayudarles a sentirse seguros, capaces y conectados, porque nadie debería tener que afrontar el posparto y las primeras etapas solos.
¿Por qué las familias eligen Family Connects?: Family Connects es un modelo basado en la evidencia y reconocido a nivel nacional que ofrece beneficios medibles. Estudios independientes demuestran: 50% menos de visitas a urgencias y hospitalizaciones para bebés durante su primer año.
Las madres tienen un 30% menos de probabilidades de sufrir depresión o ansiedad posparto. Hay un aumento del 15% en el número de familias que utilizan recursos y servicios de apoyo locales. Qué esperar durante su visita a domicilio: Una enfermera titulada visitará su hogar aproximadamente tres semanas después del nacimiento de su bebé. Ofrecen apoyo personalizado en temas como el cuidado del recién nacido (control de peso, alimentación, consejos para calmar), la salud materna (controles posparto, evaluaciones de salud mental) y te conectan con recursos locales como guarderías, apoyo de salud mental o grupos de padres. Cómo funciona: Si das a luz en un hospital participante de la Universidad de Nuevo México en los condados de Bernalillo, Sandoval, Cibola, McKinley, Torrance o Valencia, eres elegible automáticamente. Una enfermera de Family Connects se comunicará contigo en el hospital o poco después del nacimiento para programar una visita. Normalmente, las familias reciben de una a tres visitas durante dos o tres meses, adaptadas a sus necesidades individuales.
