Becoming a parent can be an exciting and rewarding experience but the time following birth marks a time of great physical and emotional change as a baby adjusts to life outside the womb and a parent adjusts to parenthood.

​

It can be relentless taking care of a tiny baby, establishing feeding, learning about baby's behaviour and living with a lack of sleep all the while coping with your own transition into parenthood. 

​

Any new parent will benefit from the extra emotional and practical support that Karen provides with her New Parent New Baby package of care.

​

What to expect?

Karen will visit you at home in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy to discuss how she can best support you and your family post-birth.

​

Following birth, Karen will visit you at home on 4 separate occasions between birth and 4 months at a pre-determined date and time. 

​

As an experienced peri-natal practitioner, Karen can support parents with:

understanding & communicating with your newborn

establishing feeding & sleep routines

soothing & settling techniques

coping with infant crying

baby massage techniques

​

AND

​

provide emotional and psychological support to overwhelmed or tired parents including specific relaxation and meditation techniques for coping with stress and anxiety.
