Family and Child Centre - for pregnancy, birth and baby care

30/06/2026

What does it mean to absolutely support a woman in childbirth?

What strength does it take to witness a woman face her highest mountain and trust that she will climb it?

What safety, encouragement and beauty can we create when we silently witness, hold space and respect every step of her journey?

Childbirth is a powerful transition to motherhood and should not be treated carelessly!

We can be very quick to wash and dress newborns these days, but ideally you and baby should just be hanging out skin to skin for the first couple of hours - settling baby into their body, getting used to each other’s smell and establishing feeding.🤱

If mom is being cared for for any reason, then a birth partner can do skin to skin instead - it still has great benefits for baby 💜
