Childbirth is one of the most significant events in our lives and brings the greatest of emotions, both of joy and anxiety. It is so important at this time to be surrounded by the sort of care and support that you require as an individual, as part of a couple, and as a new family.

I am able to offer you an individualised service of care for mother and baby in the first few weeks of life, aiming to make this special time as good as it can possibly be for you.

By helping you to establish understanding and knowledge of your baby, we create a sound base from which to begin parenthood.

A wealth of experience as nurse, midwife and health visitor enables expertise in all aspects of childcare, and offers the resources to answer all those questions you may have.

As a health visitor of many years, and having worked with many families in their homes, I also understand the need for discretion, privacy and respect for each family's way of life.

The unique aspect of my service is to hold an antenatal meeting with you and your partner and anyone else you may wish to include, to discuss how you are feeling about the birth and what you are hoping for in the first few weeks. We can discuss how this momentous event may affect your lives and how you hope to deal with that.

Your expectations and feelings about the birth itself and the first few days and weeks can be explored. This meeting would also provide an opportunity to discuss feeding your baby, other aspects of infant care, return to work if appropriate, and any other issues.

In this way, we can get to know each other better so that there will be as seamless a start to the new life as possible.
