Hands-on support in your home — baby care, feeding, sleeping and settling coaching, nutritious meals, and the practical help that makes the whole week feel more manageable

For many parents, those early weeks are harder than they expected

Sometimes families don’t need more advice — they need practical support that reduces the load.

If you’re exhausted, overwhelmed by decisions, or finding it hard to get through the day, in-home support gives you a steadier foundation: someone calm and capable in your space, helping with what matters most right now.

What Do Home Visits Look Like?

Every visit is shaped around your priorities on the day. Support may include:

  • Confidently care for baby while you rest, shower eat or reset

  • Professional help and coaching with breastfeeding / feeding

  • Sleep and settling support, which includes help making sense of what newborns needs in these early weeks

  • Professional birth debrief to process the event and help process any trauma

  • Cooking a nutritious meals or snack, and light household tasks that genuinely reduce strain

  • Emotionally supportive conversations that truly hold parents and their mental health through this time of big transitions

We don’t follow rigid routines or one-size-fits-all plans

Support is responsive, evidence-informed, and designed to protect the wellbeing of the entire family .

For families booking during pregnancy:

Families who book in-home support during pregnancy (and with sufficient time) are also offered a virtual postpartum planning session.

This session provides space to talk through priorities, support needs, and practical considerations ahead of birth, so in-home visits can be used as effectively as possible once your baby arrives.

***This planning session is offered in addition to in-home support and is not exchanged for in-home visits***

Words From Families who Received our In-Home Support:

  • "Mel joined us the minute we came home! She had met with us prior to bubs being born to understand what we were looking for and made us feel really comfortable. Mel fitted in seamlessly, arriving on days when I had no idea what I even needed & just jumped straight into it & looking after our bubs to give me some rest. 100% recommend for the mumma who doesn’t want to think and just needs someone to come & do "

    —Laura N

  • "We were so lucky to have Mel and Rachael support us after the birth of our third baby. Mel came twice a week from when our baby was 3 weeks old and made the postpartum with our busy family a beautiful and calm experience. Mel was so gentle and respectful with our baby, looking after her so I could shower, rest, or go for a walk. Helping with everything from delicious meal prep, laundry, birth debriefing and sleep/feeding troubleshooting, I would I highly recommend this service to anyone to make your postpartum journey as smooth as possible."

    — Carla H

  • "As a first time mum it is so important to have someone on your side on the postpartum journey and the planning leading up to it. We worked with Rachael and she has been nothing but supportive, encouraging, kind and understanding. it is not only emotional support ( reminding us the value of this journey and relationships, and it is ok to be not ok at times), but also very practical support ( caring for the baby for a short amount of time to give us a little breathing room and bring back a shred of self-care in our life). Would highly recommend this especially if you are a first-time mum."
