The Postnatal Packages
-
Package 1
I offer the gold standard of Midwifery care for the 4th trimester. Package 1 delivers caseloading by me from the day you go home from hospital with your new born baby and I will care for you until you feel ready to be discharged.
This package consists of a minimum of 4 x 2 hour home visits and text/voice note support as needed. The first postnatal visit will be within the first 24-48 hours of going home, ideally a visit the evening of you arriving home from hospital to ensure you’re off to the best start at home! For the first 4 or 5 days at home, we will chat daily about the night before, make plans and give lots of emotional support. This caseloading can last up to 6 weeks postnatally. Lots of practical teaching and support at your most vulnerable time.

Package 2
If you have a full time maternity nurse with you at home, or don't feel that you need physical visits, but want the reassurance that you can speak to a Midwife if you have any questions or concerns about you or baby, then package 2 is your go to choice. 2 weeks of text/voice note and phone call support with a 1 hour video call consultation included.

Package 3
Some people want a one-off postnatal visit at home. These visits last up to 2 hours and are great for learning how to bath your baby, helping with feeding, learning how to wind, settle baby and trouble shooting questions.

The Antenatal Package
I provide a 2 hour session going through your birth plan,discussing questions that have arisen since you completed a longer antenatal course and it’s also a great chance to meet before package 1 kicks in with your new baby! Alternatively, I can deliver several antenatal sessions at home, meaning that there is no need to book weekly antenatal classes. This gives us plenty of time to build a trusting relationship before the baby joins us!
