Postnatal Support

What it costs

A 20 hour postnatal package starts from £575.00

Additional or ad-hoc hours are £25.00 per hour 

If you live more than 7.5 miles away (ie a 15 mile trip) there will be an additional mileage charge for each journey: 

(Total round trip mileage - 15 miles) x 45p

A non returnable deposit is payable to confirm my support in my diary. 

I am passionate about families being supported properly and compassionately in their 4th trimester. This can take many forms, depending on your family set up, your existing support network and your birth experience, and as with all my support this is tailored to you. I can do light housework, cook nourishing meals, be a compassionate ear, provide initial feeding support, or hold your baby while you get some rest, a shower or just a moment to remember who you are. 

When your baby is born and you are at home, my post-natal support can start at any time in their first year. Families tend to get the most benefit from this support in the first 6 months though.

You and your family will benefit from improved mental health and physical recovery, you will mostly likely have enjoyed my baking and cooking and feel cherished and confident in your new role as a parent to a point when I will be thrilled when you no longer need me!

What this looks like practically

If you haven’t already had full ante-natal support from me, we will discuss your Post-natal recovery plan while you are still pregnant, which as well as preparing us both for what you will need in your 4th trimester will give us a chance to get to know each other.

On a weekly basis you'll be able to book sessions with me, calling off the hours from your package. I find that sessions of 3 hours as a minimum are useful so you really feel the benefit of my support, but of course you can book sessions for any length of time to suit your needs.

I do not offer overnight support, but I can work until 11pm if I have sufficient notice.
