Newborn preparation
Our tailored antenatal education program focuses on life with a newborn baby. We address many of your common concerns including optimising sleep for your whole family, the most effective crying and settling strategies, maximising developmental potential, and breastfeeding/bottle feeding education to give you and your baby the best possible beginning. Our program will give you the confidence and tools to prepare for your new arrival.
Our approach is based on cued care, which is sensibly responding to your baby in the way you think they are cueing for. Cued care nurtures the healthy development of your baby: their little brain, body, and emotional development. Our methods are underpinned by the latest medical research and build your resilience as parents to support your mental health.
For families having their second baby, this session is an opportunity to discuss any problems experienced with your first baby and strategies to help prevent similar issues. The best time to book this consultation is in the third trimester of pregnancy.
