Because your care doesn’t end when your baby is born.

Postnatal Care

What to expect from your postnatal visits

Each visit is tailored to your needs and may include:

For you:

  • Full physical and emotional health checks

  • Feeding support (breast, bottle, combination, or expressing)

  • Birth debrief and time to process your experience

  • Emotional and psychological check-ins

  • Breast check and breastfeeding support

  • Routine observations (blood pressure, temperature, pulse)

  • Uterus, bladder, bowel and perineal care

  • Support with postnatal bleeding, recovery and mobility

  • Advice on rest, exercise, and recovery after birth

  • WhatsApp access for non-urgent questions between visits

Having a baby is life-changing—and you deserve support that’s personal, gentle, and responsive to your unique needs. I’ll be by your side as you adjust to life with your newest little family member, offering continuity, reassurance, and space to rest and recover.

My postnatal care is centred around you and your baby. Appointments are relaxed and take place in the comfort of your home. Each visit lasts 1–2 hours and includes a full postnatal health check for both of you, feeding support, and practical guidance to help you feel confident in caring for your newborn.

For your baby:

  • Weight checks on days 5, 10 & 28

  • Visual head-to-toe check of overall wellbeing

  • Eye, cord and mouth care

  • Skin checks and reassurance around common newborn skin conditions

  • Bladder and bowel output assessment to support feeding

  • Support with common newborn behaviour, sleep, and settling

  • Newborn blood spot screening on day 5

  • Option to book a home-based NIPE newborn physical examination (within 72 hours, additional fee)

Flexible care to suit your needs

I offer:

  • Full continuity of carer packages including postnatal care

  • Individual postnatal visits

  • Standalone postnatal care plans

  • One-off visits for reassurance, feeding support, or physical check-ups

All postnatal care is delivered with kindness, clinical skill, and the time and space you need to ask questions, build confidence, and enjoy those early days. Whether you’ve birthed at home, in hospital, or by caesarean—I'm here to walk with you through it all.
