Blissful Beginnings has launched its postpartum care retreats, the first of its kind in the region. Located at two luxury hotels, the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Jumeirah and the Park Hyatt Hotel in Dubai Creek, Blissful Beginnings offers groundbreaking, tailored programmes for new families and their babies to support mothers navigating the delicate postpartum phase.
A HISTORY OF CARE
Existing offerings predominantly revolve around childcare, with occasional parental support, and so Blissful Beginnings has been founded to bridge a large gap in postpartum care. Used by millions of women around the world, postnatal retreats are particularly popular and deeply ingrained in cultures throughout Asia and the Americas. In these regions, the emphasis of postnatal retreats stems from the traditional beliefs that postpartum care and recovery significantly impact a woman's long-term health, marriage wellbeing and connection with their newborn.
THE FIRST OF ITS KIND
Inspired by the positive impact postnatal retreats have had on millions of women every day, Blissful Beginnings is the first to bring this concept to the UAE and provides a fully integrated care that focuses on maternal self-recovery and healing, coupled with attentive baby care, all within the ambiance of a soothing retreat.
Sandrine Chaker, Founder and CEO of Blissful Beginnings tells us "Blissful Beginnings has been created to fill a void in postnatal care, recognising that the current focus primarily revolves around childcare. Upon leaving the hospital, new mothers often return home to the care of nurses or nannies.
However, we believe that true motherhood encompasses more than just child care. Our mission is to redefine the postpartum experience, encouraging women to embrace motherhood and embark on this incredible journey with confidence and vitality."
