Maternity & Postnatal Care
Compassionate, professional support for mother and baby at home during the postnatal period — helping mothers recover while receiving practical assistance with newborn care.
Caring for Mother and Baby in Those Precious First Weeks
The weeks after birth are joyful, but they can also be exhausting and overwhelming. Mothers are recovering physically — sometimes after a Caesarean section — while learning to feed, bathe and settle a newborn, often on very little sleep. Many families today also live far from the relatives who would traditionally have helped.
Our postnatal support brings experienced, caring help into the home. We support the mother's recovery, help with practical newborn care, encourage feeding, and give the mother time to rest — while watching for signs in mother or baby that need a health worker's attention.
Support can begin as soon as mother and baby come home and continue for as long as the family needs it, with day or night arrangements available.
Who it's for
New mothers recovering after childbirth, including after a Caesarean section, who want professional postnatal support and practical help with their newborn in the comfort of home.
Signs Your Family May Need This Service
If any of these sound familiar, it may be time to talk to us. A short conversation and assessment will help you decide on the right level of support.
How We Care for Your Loved One
Every care plan is tailored to the patient. These are the areas of support most families ask us for.
Mother's Recovery
Postnatal checks and monitoring, help with personal hygiene, and care of a Caesarean wound where clinically appropriate.
Newborn Care
Practical help with bathing, changing, cord care, dressing and settling the baby, and showing parents how with confidence.
Feeding Support
Encouragement and practical support with breastfeeding where staff are appropriately trained, and with safe bottle feeding where chosen.
Rest & Respite
Looking after the baby between feeds, including overnight, so the mother can sleep and recover her strength.
Watching for Warning Signs
Noticing signs such as fever, heavy bleeding, jaundice or feeding difficulties early, and advising the family to seek medical review.
Emotional Support
A calm, reassuring presence, and gentle attention to the mother's mood — encouraging her to seek help if she feels persistently low or anxious.

What Postnatal Support Looks Like
Welcome Home
We meet mother and baby, understand the birth and any instructions from the hospital, and agree the routine.
Mother's Care
Checks on the mother's recovery, hygiene support and wound care where appropriate.
Baby's Care
Bathing, changing, feeding support and settling — teaching as we go so parents grow in confidence.
Rest & Review
Time for the mother to rest, and a short update to the family on how mother and baby are doing.
Keeping You Informed, Wherever You Are
Whether you live around the corner or on the other side of the world, you will always know how your loved one is doing.
Postnatal support complements, and does not replace, the postnatal check-ups, immunisations and medical care provided by your midwife, doctor or health facility.
