Essential Postnatal Care
What do you get?
The NHS is an excellent service, however it can’t always meet the needs of parents; appointments can sometimes be rushed, are not always offered in your home and you may have to wait in all day. Our essential postnatal package is perfect for second (or third or fourth!) time parents and provides four appointments spread across 2 weeks with an experienced midwife, in your own home at a convenient time (no waiting around for the midwife!) and includes the universal screening offered to all newborns. Each appointment usually lasts around an hour and replaces the NHS care. It includes:
- Focussed care and support for the mother
- Physical and emotional wellbeing checks
- Expert feeding support
- Baby care advice and guidance
- Newborn screening (Newborn Bloodspot Screening) and regular weighing
- Parenting expertise
