Our Mission
As Registered Midwives and Doula's we
believe every new or expanding family
benefits from postpartum home visits with
an experienced and professional care provider.
Bringing a new baby home from the hospital
can be overwhelming and fraught with
uncertainties. It is our mission to provide
expert guidance during the transition from
hospital to home and establish a solid
foundation for successful parenting.
WELCOME
The Registered Midwives at Confident Beginnings are available to perform a thorough assessment of the mom and new baby in the comfort of your own home and our clinic. Our visits will offer the opportunity to identify and treat common maternal and newborn problems during a time when they might otherwise go unnoticed.
We will work closely with your providers so that you can have all of the support you need without leaving home. We work to optimize the baby’s introduction to the world and the mother’s recovery after birth. We provide a holistic perspective and a wealth of information to all members of the family to assure a healthy start.
Clients of Confident Beginnings Care can expect a comprehensive exam for both the recently delivered mother and newborn baby. Our exams will screen for common maternal problems such as postpartum depression, high blood pressure, and infection of either vaginal lacerations or cesarean section wounds. The newborn exam will screen for common newborn problems such as jaundice, dehydration and poor weight gain.
In addition, the Registered Midwives have over 15 years of experience working with women to assist with breastfeeding, providing instruction on appropriate latch, milk production and breast comfort.
Families can expect a better understanding of infant development which will assist in calming fussy babies and meeting general needs of the newborn.
Finally, our Registered Midwives are experts in the Northern Health care community and can refer you to a variety of resources to meet the needs of the entire family during the delicate transition from hospital to home.
