A lovely family expecting their third baby are looking for an experienced maternity practitioner to support them following the arrival of their newborn via C-section. This will be a 2–3 month position.
The family are seeking a professional and knowledgeable candidate who is confident in establishing gentle sleep routines and able to support the mother with combination feeding. As they have not had maternity support before, they would really value someone empathetic, understanding, and able to guide them through this special time with reassurance and care.
The older children are very excited to welcome their new sibling, and the family would love someone who is happy to encourage bonding and support a calm, positive transition for everyone.
They are keen to establish a good routine early on to help encourage better sleep, so a candidate with strong experience in this area would be ideal.
This is a wonderful opportunity for a warm, experienced maternity nurse who enjoys supporting families holistically during the early weeks.
