Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Body Mass Index score(BMI sds) at the age 6 years to monitor the effectiveness of the intervention

    Weight gain, reflected in BMI sds will reflect if the intervention has been successful

    5 years

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • sleeping behavior

    5 years

  • biomarkers

    5 years

  • physical activity and sedentary behaviour

    5 years

  • dietary intake

    5 years

  • socioeconomic factors

    5 years

Study Arms (2)

Low intensity arm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Written information about a healthy lifestyle

Behavioral: Dietary, physical activity and sleeping

High intensity arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Lifestyle support (PA, sleep, food intake) using MI

Behavioral: Dietary, physical activity and sleeping

Interventions

The intervention in the present study will be delivered through sessions aiming at developing healthy lifestyle habits regarding physical activity, food intake and regular sleeping habits for parents and children. These sessions will be performed face to face by trained health care workers and carried out in the welfare centres with the parent/s. Children will not be approached directly in the present study. All families will meet with their coach/facilitator during at least 12 times (including start and final evaluation meeting) until the children reach 6 years of age (such as school age). However extra effort (as boosting sessions) will be made if growth records show an increased BMI (weight induced meetings). The parents are also encouraged to keep contact with their coach either by phone or e-mail as often as they feel needed. The Low intensity arm will only receive written information and no direct face to face support
