What we help with

  1. What

    Unbroken sleep is the foundation of recovery. A night or maternity nurse takes the feeds and the settling so you can rest, and shows you routines you can keep.

    Who helps here
    • Maternity nurse
    • Night nanny
    • Night doula
    How often
    Two to five nights a week
    When
    From your first night home, often for the first six to twelve weeks
  2. What

    An extra pair of hands through the day: someone to hold the baby while you shower, eat or sleep, and to help you find your feet.

    Who helps here
    • Postnatal doula
    • Maternity nanny
    • Mother’s help
    How often
    A few half-days to most weekdays
    When
    From week one, stepping down as you settle
  3. What

    Feeding is one of the most common things to struggle with early on. Expert help with latch, supply or bottles makes the weeks after much easier.

    Who helps here
    • Lactation consultant (IBCLC)
    • Infant feeding specialist
    • Tongue-tie practitioner
    How often
    One home visit, with a follow-up if needed
    When
    Ideally in your first days home, or whenever feeding hurts or worries you
  4. What

    Your body has done something enormous. Postnatal massage, women’s health physiotherapy and pelvic floor care help it heal properly rather than just get by.

    Who helps here
    • Women’s health physiotherapist
    • Pelvic floor specialist
    • Postnatal massage therapist
    How often
    Weekly or fortnightly
    When
    Gentle massage from the first weeks; physiotherapy usually from around six weeks
  5. What

    Recovery and feeding both run on food. A postnatal chef or regular deliveries mean good, warming meals without anyone having to cook.

    Who helps here
    • Postnatal chef
    • Nutritionist
    • Meal delivery
    How often
    A weekly cook, or deliveries a few times a week
    When
    From the day you come home, through the first six weeks
  6. What

    The early weeks can be overwhelming, and low moments are common. Time with a perinatal therapist or postnatal doula gives you somewhere to put it all.

    Who helps here
    • Perinatal therapist
    • Perinatal psychologist
    • Postnatal doula
    How often
    Weekly or fortnightly sessions
    When
    Any time; many parents start in the first month
  7. What

    Cleaning, laundry and the errands that pile up. Taking them off the list leaves the time for you and the baby.

    Who helps here
    • Housekeeper
    • Cleaner
    • Errands & laundry help
    How often
    Once or twice a week
    When
    From the first week, for as long as it helps
  8. What

    Private midwives and specialists who see you and the baby at home, alongside your NHS care, for reassurance between appointments.

    Who helps here
    • Private midwife
    • Paediatric nurse
    • Specialist consultants
    How often
    A scheduled visit or two, then as needed
    When
    In the first fortnight, and whenever something doesn’t feel right

Question 1 of 5

The nights are where it falls apart first.

Sleep is what makes everything else possible. A night nanny takes the nights, so the days feel like yours again.
