Parenting Skills
Learning the behaviours of a newborn baby and the way to care for them is challenge for all new parents, not just those that are breastfeeding. This is an opportunity for a home visit focused solely on learning my top tips and tricks for settling, swaddling, and how to manage all the things that most babies do when they are first born. Useful in those first few weeks after you take your baby home.
This advice is provided within my lactation home visit package, but I am now offering it to all parents. Not just those with breastfeeding difficulties.
