Well Baby Clinic

Many mothers find themselves overwhelmed with an abundance of information regarding baby-care. As the pregnancy progresses, they may have mixed feelings of nervousness and excitement and this is to be expected as it is a major responsibility that they are approaching.

When the baby arrives, the parents can find themselves exhausted from lack of sleep and the demands of having the responsibility of caring for their newborn. This may produce feelings of inadequacy and not feeling secure in their role as parents.

The most important priority is always to give their baby the attention it needs. By feeding, keeping the baby clean and dry and holding the baby close, the baby’s most basic needs will be met.

There is never any concern about ‘spoiling’ a baby in these early months. By attending to the baby’s needs and getting to know the baby by sometimes pre-empting these needs, a loving bond will develop. A building of trust and that the main caregiver will become the most important person in their lives. This creates a relationship of stability and security which helps form a happy secure child.

Here at the Well-Baby Clinic, we offer that extra support often needed in these first few months. We are here to answer any questions and concerns you may have. Within our clinic, we will assess your baby’s growth and development, provide immunizations and treatment for existing problems and offer you advice and guidance on feeding/settling issues.
