We offer a bespoke combination of services to help families to manage their Post Natal experience, to improve their Mental Wellbeing, their experience of parenting and their relationship with their child. The services include one to one emotional and practical support at home or in the community from one of our trained Peer Mentor volunteers, group support for parents and their children, and courses in understanding and managing Post Natal Mental Wellbeing.

Why they need our service

Parenting very young children can be an exhausting, isolating experience for many. Some parents find their mental health and wellbeing is significantly affected by Post Natal Illness. This project supports those families affected by Post Natal Illness in the various forms it takes.

Plan and expected results

We support around 40 different families each year through the project, and approximately 60 different children benefit as a result. The effects of poor Post Natal Mental Wellbeing can include Anxiety, Depression, OCD, and feelings of isolation and loneliness. These are significantly reduced by the project support, helping families to look forward to a positive future with their children.
