Health Care for Pregnant Moms and babies
怀孕期间，医疗保健（产前护理）对母亲和胎儿的健康至关重要。健康保险计划可提供免费或低成本的孕期医疗保健。

Assistance programs are available to help pay for child care. The 211 child care guide explains your options.
You can also search our 211 Community Resource Database for a list of early childhood centers and locations to get help paying for it.
