My husband and I are in our early 70s, and have no family living nearby. Recently, for the first time ever, we found ourselves ill at the same time, and things got a bit desperate re food shopping and preparation, and general errands and visiting the one of us who was in hospital for part of the time. We don't ever want to be in that situation again, so I am wondering if anyone could recommend a carer agency whom we could call on at times like this. We are normally fine, i hasten to add, so the sort of help I am thinking of would always be short-term, at short notice and not live-in. Many thanks in advance.

  Invitation to Expectant Parents: Infant Observation Are you due to give birth this September or October? Would you be interested in taking part in an Infant Observation with an NHS honorary psychotherapist? I am an honorary psychotherapist working with adults in the NHS (Adult Complex Needs, Tavistock Clinic). I need to conduct an Infant Observation as part of my NHS training in psychodynamic psychotherapy. By taking part, you can contribute to mental health services and our understanding of human development from birth. Infant Observation is an established part of psychoanalytic training. It allows for the in-depth study of the early life and development of babies in relation to their caregiver(s) in their home environment. I am looking for expectant parent(s) who would be interested in taking part with their infant from about 6 weeks after birth, ideally beginning Oct/Nov 2025. The observation would take place for one hour each week during term time at the infant's home at the same time each week, to be agreed between myself and the caregiver(s), for the duration of 3 academic terms (roughly 9 months to 1 year). My role would be to non-intrusively observe and reflect on the infant's development and communications. The work is a requirement of my training at the Tavistock and would be supervised by a Tavistock clinician. Parents and caregivers can gain support and insight from taking part at this important and unique time in your baby's development. I work with adults in an Adult Complex Needs unit in the NHS, and at Tavistock Relationships. I have worked in a psychotherapy community for survivors of human rights violations where I helped establish a mother and baby group for refugee and asylum seeking mothers. I have a Phd in Literature & I am a contributor to the London Review of Books. I am working on my first book, a history of childhood. I am coming towards the end of my psychotherapy training having already gained a postgraduate diploma in Psychotherapy from the Tavistock NHS Clinic and University of Essex. If you would be interested in taking part with your infant, please respond to this post. With thanks, Mary Hannity

  Like most of us, I'm guessing they didn't look into thoroughly
