Postnatal

Postnatal Care
Congratulations on the newest member of your family!

Nurture Co. knows as new parents you will no doubt be excited at the birth of your child, but the overwhelming emotional and practical demands of parenthood can be stressful, especially for first time parents. Many parents will have questions about how to take care of their baby, ranging from breastfeeding to sleep patterns and how to cope with postpartum blues. Nurture Co. has designed a range of postnatal services to meet your needs.

Postnatal checkups
During these visits your baby will be weighed and their overall health and wellbeing assessed. You will receive important information on how to care for your baby and tips on dealing with certain aspects of newborn care.

Join this class to discuss and share your experiences of birth and early parenthood. Babies welcome (and expected!) no matter how noisy they may be. Facilities for changing and feeding available.

One on One Lactation Support
Breastfeeding can be a close and enjoyable experience for both you and your baby, but it can sometimes be challenging - particularly in the early days. We have help at hand! This is also ideal for mothers who may have struggled to breastfeed previous babies. Such problems include sore nipples, inverted nipples, engorgement, breast abscess, mastitis, inadequate milk supply, an unsettled baby, or needing to abandon breastfeeding before you intended. 

Sleep and Settle – Day Stay 
At Nurture Co. we feel one of the most important gifts you can teach your child is the ability to fall asleep on their own and stay asleep unaided. If you find yourself routinely holding, rocking, walking or bouncing your baby to sleep because they won’t sleep in their cot then we can be of assistance to you.  Maybe you have to take your baby in the car, put them in a swing or in a pram because you can’t get them to sleep any other way. Perhaps your baby refuses to sleep unless she is fed first. Whatever your scenario, Nurture Co. can offer personal support and guidance to put you back on the right track. 

Breastfeeding support groups (coming soon)
We believe that breastfeeding is the healthiest way to feed your baby and we recognise the important benefits which breastfeeding provides for both you and your child. To help new mothers and mothers-to-be, we run breast feeding groups offering support, advice and help.

Breastfeeding Classes (coming soon)
It is a well-accepted fact that breast milk gives your baby the best start in life, naturally providing the perfect mix of all the nutrients they require for healthy growth and wellbeing. Nurture Co. offers an exclusive antenatal breastfeeding class run by an experienced Lactation Consultant to equip mothers with essential breastfeeding information.   This information will be followed through within our postnatal clinics.
