N2  - This article examines a series of issues relating to client satisfaction with the Early Start programme, a Government Family Start initiative. The Early Start programme is a home visitation service provided by trained family support workers designed to support, empower and assist families to address issues relating to child-rearing, parenting and family functioning. After receiving the service for 36 months, 163 families were asked about their satisfaction with the service.

Higher levels of satisfaction were associated with increasing service duration and having fewer family support workers involved with the family
