Great news! I CAN HELP! 🙌🌈

💤 Apart from being a baby & toddler sleep consultant 😴 I have been working as a Newborn Care Specialist for the past 25 years. I provide very special niche service devoted to caring for newborns 👶 and supporting new parents. I can pop in and provide an extra pair of hands on an ad-hoc, short term basis or for a longer term depending on your requirements.

❓Why is self-care for new mums so vital?

It is important to recognise that becoming a new parent is a huge life change, coping with sleep deprivation, social isolation, worry and maybe you are living far from family that would normally step in to help and support you. Many new mums experience feelings of loneliness and isolation. It?s important to recognise that focussing on self-care and prioritising rest is really crucial, both for your mental and physical wellbeing. Getting a professional to assist you with your baby in those first few weeks or months can be a huge help, it will allow you time to adjust to your new arrival and put your mind at ease.
