"Everyone wants to hold the baby but who will hold the mother?"

I Will

Hello, I’m Sinéad,

I’m a newborn care specialist & parental support coach living in Horsham with my husband and son.

I’ve been nurturing and supporting new families for over 25 years, and I understand the unique challenges and joys that come with welcoming a new addition to your family.

I can be your village

The famous African proverb “It takes a village to raise a child” tells us that it takes many people (a village!) to provide the care and support that is needed when a new child arrives earthside.

Sadly for many new parents today, these villages no longer exist, leaving them feeling isolated, without a trusted community to offer advice, emotional support or a much needed night’s sleep!

This is where I can help. I have a wealth of knowledge and insight from working with hundreds of new parents and families as a nanny, night nanny and later on as a newborn care specialist and parental support coach across the South East of England.

Hear what the families I have worked with say...

Sinéad instantly fitted the bill – we found her open, communicative and friendly. Our baby appeared to take to her, and this rapport quickly grew over the first few weeks. She is a highly friendly and warm person with a lovely sense of humour too! Many nights, I found myself chatting to her in the nursery when I was unable to fall asleep easily and had popped out to get water or a snack. She was great at providing moral support to me as a new mum.

We found Sinéad to be both hugely professional and at the same time unbelievably kind and loving to our babies, snuggling them at night and getting them dressed in the morning. In addition, we found her wise counsel invaluable from feed’s to changing and sleep preferences, all of which made our’s and our babies lives much, much better.

It was always a comfort to know that Sinéad was coming to stay and that our daughter would be well cared for so that we could rest at ease. Sinéad was always professional, polite and courteous and made us feel very comfortable to have her in our home. It was fantastic to be able to ask Sinéad anything and to not feel judged and to use her wealth of experience as a mum and nanny when caring for my daughter.
