Don’t Navigate Early Parenthood Alone
The early months can feel overwhelmingly confusing and heavier than you ever expected. Even the most capable parents can find themselves unsure, exhausted, and flooded with mixed or conflicting advice. Many parents quietly struggle with thoughts like…
“I thought I’d cope better than this.”
“Why does everything feel so overwhelming?”
“Everyone says something different — I don’t know who to trust.”
“Why can’t I read my own baby? What am I missing?”
“I feel touched-out, overstimulated, and constantly on edge.”
“What if I’m doing something wrong and don’t even know it?”
“Other parents seem to be managing — why is this so hard for me?”
“I love my baby… so why am I not enjoying this more?”

The Birth of Personalized Postpartum Support
When we became mothers, we were shocked by how overwhelming the early months felt — even with backgrounds in nursing and social work. We expected to feel prepared. Instead, we found ourselves exhausted, overstimulated, second-guessing everything, and realising how little real support families receive once the baby arrives.
We saw capable, loving parents quietly struggling alone under the weight of mixed advice, feeding challenges, unsettled babies, identity shifts, and the pressure to “cope” without help. And we knew it shouldn’t be this way.
So we combined our professional training with specialised postpartum and infant-behaviour education (and our own lived experiences) to create the kind of support we wished we had — calm, evidence-informed, emotionally attuned, and grounded in the realities of early parenthood.
Today, Melbourne Postpartum Services exists so families don’t have to navigate the early months alone. You deserve care that feels personal, practical, and genuinely supportive — from people who truly understand what you’re going through.
