Background: The parenting usually entails great joy but can also involve major challenges. Parenting is not always experienced positively, on occasion it can be very stressful. Studies show that early intervention can enhance the parenting role and promote connection between the child and the parent and thus facilitate illness prevention in children. Aim: To illustrate child health, nurses and parenting counselors provided extended home visits for new parents. Method: A qualitative design and the phenomenological approach are used. Seven interviews were carried out with Child health nurses and parenting counselors. The results were analyzed with a content analysis. Results consist of four headings; Prerequisites for good cooperation, The importance of the meeting place, Concrete support for parents, Challenges to support parents Conclusion: The result shows that the project helped child health nurses and parenting counselors provide increased security and support in the parenting role. They have learned that the collaboration in the project has been experienced positively as they together can support families with their specific knowledge. Their view is that the families appreciate the support offered and it is easier for them to discuss sensitive topics in their own home. The prerequisites for being able to respond to challenges in the project require staff support from the manager and training in different cultural approaches.
