Maternity Nurse

 

A maternity nurse will have extensive experience in the care of new born babies. Some may have experience in the care of twins or even triplets.

 

The maternity nurse will usually live with a family for several weeks and her time will be completely dedicated to the care of your baby and giving help and advice to a mother following the birth.

 

They will also help to establish a routine and create a calm atmosphere for the family. Every situation is very different to the next and a maternity nurse will offer as much hands on help as is needed.

 

A maternity nurse typically works 6 days a week.
