Family Resource Center St. Croix Valley, 'Growing Kids by Growing Families' - My Gateway News - Serving Elmwood, Spring Valley and Woodville, WI

Family Resource Center St. Croix Valley, 'Growing Kids by Growing Families' - My Gateway News - Serving Elmwood, Spring Valley and Woodville, WI: 'Imagine a world where every newborn baby in Pierce, Polk, and St. Croix counties is visited by a trained professional while he/she is still in the hospital.'

I'm confused, where in the civilized world doesn't that happen? I thought all hospital births include a doctor visit after the birth?

'Imagine a world where prenatal care is also available.'
The whole civilized world?

'Now imagine this: regular opportunities for parents and babies to socialize with other parents and babies'
Virtually the whole world?

'home visits to the family of baby until baby gets on the school bus and heads off to kindergarten.'
Maybe its just the wording or something but that makes me think of Big Brother for some reason.
