How I show up...
When I come to your home, there’s no need to tidy up or play host—in fact, I’ll probably be the one making you a cup of tea. My role is to support you, hold space for you, and help you feel seen, cared for, and understood during those tender early days with your baby.
You’re welcome to share whatever’s on your mind—your thoughts, feelings, and questions. I’ll listen with warmth and without judgment, offering reassurance, gentle guidance, and information when you want it.
As a mother myself, I know how powerful it is to have someone alongside you who understands, but isn’t emotionally caught up in your experience. While you hold your baby, I’ll be there to hold you.
What I offer
How I Support You
Emotional Support
This is time that’s just for you. Whether you want to talk through your birth story, cry, laugh, vent, or simply sit quietly, I’m here to listen with compassion. We can explore the emotional, physical, and hormonal changes you’re experiencing, and I can share what’s typical for newborns so you can feel more confident in your role as a parent. My aim is to help you feel heard, validated, and less alone in the transition.
Informational Support
No question is too small. I provide clear, evidence-based information about feeding, creating a plan for feeding that serves you, recovery, baby care, sleep, and whatever else is on your mind. If you’d like to meet other local parents or join postnatal groups, I can connect you with trusted resources. I also offer a pre-birth postnatal planning session if you’d like to prepare for those first weeks before your baby arrives.
Practical Support
Each visit is shaped around what you need in that moment. This might include:
-
Holding or wearing your baby so you can rest, shower, or have a meal.
-
Preparing nourishing food or doing some batch cooking.
-
Making sure you’ve eaten and have a hot drink in hand.
-
Popping on a wash, folding laundry, or tidying up baby items.
-
Creating a calmer environment by helping with light household tasks.
-
Coming with you to appointments or errands so you feel more confident getting out.
Practical help is more than just ticking things off a list—it’s about creating space for you to rest, recover, and connect with your baby without feeling overwhelmed by the daily demands.
Overnight Care
This is to support if you need to reset and restore or if maybe a partner is away, I can support cooking cleaning, night feed, morning getting ready etc hours will be discussed on a personal basis. The role is open maybe you need some one on one breastfeeding support and we can do the night together. The reasons will be personal maybe you just need more rest.
It may be that you need to sleep and `I will look after the baby at night it may be that you juts want me to bring them to your for feed and then I'll mind and settle them back to sleep.
Overnight Care is £250 -350
Depending on timings agreed, equally if there's an agree ment for a few nights we may be able to figure a supportive fee out for all.
You don’t have to do it all alone. I’m here to make sure you feel held—so you can focus on what matters most: bonding with your baby and caring for yourself.
My Intention - Whatever support looks like for you, my aim is to lighten your load, nurture your confidence, and make life feel just a little easier. These early weeks are precious, but they can also be intense. With the right support, you can move through them feeling cared for and more at ease
