Farewell lockdown 3.0, summer is here, with brighter days to come, hopefully in every sense of the word! A moment please for our cover photo, shot by the incredibly talented Amanda Hatton of Your Story Photography. Sigh - those newborn cuddles! Returning to work and easing your baby into a crèche can be a daunting prospect for many families. For some, it can be difficult enough, with just the thought of leaving your baby for long periods of time, without the added challenge of preparing your child to sleep well there too. Sleep Consultant and Author of ‘The Baby Sleep Solution’, Lucy Wolfe, has put together some helpful strategies and points of consideration, to make the transition as smooth as possible. The fourth trimester, or the first three months of your baby's life, is a time of great learning and adjustment for the whole family. At times it may feel as though the focus is all on the newborn and mother dyad, but partners we see you. We acknowledge that you too are transitioning into a new role without much guidance. A role, which has become all-encompassing in recent decades. Postnatal Doulas, Ceara McManus & Eleanor Farrell of Doula to You, take a look at the first few postpartum month’s, from a partner’s point of view. We are delighted to showcase the latest in our Mum Boss series, featuring Pat Kane, Founder of reuzi.ie and Jane and Sandra Palles, Owners of Emily and Eve. We dare you not to be inspired by these amazing women! Make sure to enter all our great giveaways. We have a 1 year supply of Waterful baby wipes, the brand new NUNA Cudl baby carrier and a hamper of books from MacMillan.
