New Parents Gift - Antenatal & Postpartum Sessions 4 Hr each

At an Antenatal visit, I can help you set up the baby's cot/side sleeper/bassinet, assemble the buggy for you, set up nappy change areas and give you tips on baby care for when you get home.

I can also provide information resources and tips on range of topics including: winding, reflux, colic, feeding positions, nappies, baby wearing, baby massage, safe cosleeping, baby sleep, washing baby, expressing and storing milk, sterilising bottles, partner giving baby a bottle, baby starting solids, sibling adjustment, your own recovery, nutrition, fears or concerns you may wish to discuss.

This includes, but is not limited to, and changes over weeks as family needs evolve: minding baby for mom to sleep/rest or shower/bath or eat or go for walk (whatever mom needs to do), minding baby for parents to have time with older siblings, minding older siblings for parents to have time with new baby, nappy changes, bath baby, feed baby expressed milk or formula, wash and sterilise breast pump and/or bottles, prepare meals for family, accompany mom to medical appointments, laundry (load washing machine/dryer/clothes drying horse), change bed sheets, organise baby clothes for storage, organise toys for older siblings, assist in any practical way that benefits the family.
