Birth Education Video Series

A complete guide for looking after your new baby in the early  weeks after birth.

Adjust to life at home with help from our early childhood nurses and parents as they explain what is ‘normal’ for a newborn and give easy strategies to help when you need it.

1) Your New Baby- Early Childhood Nurse, Judy, looks at what a new baby is really like- why they cry, what they want and what to do for them.

We also learn from new parents Emma & Peter and Ally & Fernando.

Coran illustrates further the important role that Dad plays in the family.

2)  PND (postnatal depression)- Lyn (Life coach, midwife & counsellor) discusses what post-natal depression is, how it affects us, how we can detect it early, and ways to try to avoid being affected by PND.

Testimonial re DVD3

This DVD was fantastic. It was very easy to follow and the presenters in the DVD
were easy to relate to and were very knowledgeable.

It takes you through
all the steps of bringing your baby home, such as car restraints, hiring baby equipment, baby massage and feeding.

It also had very handy
sections on reflux, teething and starting solids. I felt that all
subjects on the DVD were covered very well and gave me great information, which would be especially beneficial for first time parents.

I think the 3 DVD's, (Pregnancy, Birth and Baby) are a fantastic idea. Very well suited to all parents, especially those expecting for the first time and
are unable to get to antenatal classes, and also for parents who haven't had a baby in a number of years.

I thoroughly enjoyed the DVD and so did my husband.
