Expert care, in the comfort of your own home.
The weeks after birth can feel like nothing you expected. Wonderful and overwhelming. Exhausting and exhilarating. Full of questions nobody warned you about.
Having someone come to you in those early weeks, someone with the knowledge to answer your questions, the warmth to sit with you, and the practical pair of hands to help you rest, can make an enormous difference to how you feel about yourself as a new parent.
As a Registered Midwife, IBCLC and specialist in perinatal mental health, I offer postnatal support visits that are tailored entirely to you and your family. No agenda, no rushing, no judgement. Just calm, expert, compassionate support for as long as you need it.
What a postnatal support visit looks like
Every visit is 2 hours and led entirely by what you need on the day. We might spend time on feeding, or talking through how you are feeling, or I might hold your baby while you have a shower and a cup of tea that's actually hot. Sometimes what a family needs most is simply an extra pair of hands and the reassurance of having someone experienced nearby.
Topics we can cover together include:
Newborn care — bathing, skin care, cord care and getting to know your baby
Infant feeding — support and education across all feeding choices, including bottle feeding, combination feeding and responsive feeding
Safe sleep — evidence-based guidance to help you feel confident and informed
Baby development and cues — understanding what your baby is telling you and what to expect week by week
Your postnatal recovery — what is normal after both vaginal and caesarean birth, and what warrants attention
Your emotional wellbeing — honest space to talk about how you are really doing, with someone trained in perinatal mental health who will listen without judgement
After every visit you will receive a written summary of what we covered and any recommendations, so you have something to refer back to when everything feels like a blur.
Between visits, email support is available.
Appointments and packages
All visits can be booked individually or as part of a package. Packages combine clinic and home appointments to give you the best of both, with home visits used at the moments they matter most. All-home visit packages are available on request.
A booking deposit secures your package, with the balance due at or before your first appointment. Please see my booking terms for full details.
