You did it! You birthed your baby. 

As the emotional intensity of the day beings to pass and your baby rests safely in your arms. There’s a moment as the day starts to settle when you and a your partner are hit with tiredness and hunger.  Your body feels sore, you’re adjusting to feeding, whilst replaying the day’s events in your mind. 

In a hospital ward that is unfamiliar, clinical and constantly changing around you.  You'll notice the conflicted relief and worry on your partner’s face when you bravely tell them they should go home to sleep, rather than trying to doze in the uncomfortable bedside chair, as they fight between the of need to sleep whilst not wanting to leave you to cope with your newborn and discomfort alone.

But you don't have to feel worried about how you'll move, how well your baby is feeding, that you want to sleep but your baby is only settled when on your chest listening to your heartbeat. You'll have reassurance that your baby is OK, that when you need pain relief you won't be forgotten, that your voice is heard. With me at your bedside focusing on only you, I want you to feel safe, calm and confident that everything will be OK as you put all your energy in to getting to know your baby. 

Not as rotating hospital staff with a checklist of tasks, whoever’s available, for however long they can spare.  But as consistent, familiar, dedicated support chosen by you because of how you feel in my company. 

I help you get comfortable. 
I advocate when needed.
Ensure you and your baby are safe and have everything you both need.

Instead of surviving the first night, you'll feel cared for and protected.
Instead of feeling ignored, you feel heard and seen.
Instead of leaving hospital exhausted and overwhelmed, you leave feeling steadier and more confident in your recovery.

Returning in the morning refreshed by sleep and breakfast your partner can feel ready to step back in to support you. 

Because how you are cared for matters just as much as how your baby is.

Support from me starts on your first night in hospital and continues long after being  discharged and the appointments stop. Postnatal support in your home as you navigate adjusting to parenthood that adapts as your baby grows, from contact naps, to upsizing baby clothes or preparing a meal. Your support stops when you feel ready, not when a system decides.
