Postpartum Homecoming Support in Geneva
Coming home with a newborn is as wonderful as it is overwhelming: getting the hang of care routines, managing exhaustion, and finding your footing, often with no prior experience. My postpartum homecoming support gives you a reassuring presence from the very first days at home, I take care of both day and night care, train you in the right techniques, and stay available on WhatsApp in the following weeks to answer your questions.
How the support unfolds
From the very first days at home, I take care of day-to-day needs: breastfeeding or bottle-feeding, bathing, changing, settling baby to sleep, all while showing you the techniques at your own pace. At night, I watch over your baby so you can finally sleep and recover, while noting everything worth sharing when you wake up.
The goal is to gradually make you autonomous and confident: I pass on my years of experience in neonatology and pediatric intensive care, never doing things in your place, but staying by your side for as long as you need. Between visits, I stay reachable on WhatsApp to answer your questions.
From the first three days, we check in together on what's working well and what could use adjusting: feeding rhythm, positioning, sleep management. Every family moves at their own pace, some gaining confidence within the first week, others preferring longer support.
What's included
Daily Newborn Care
Every gesture matters in the first months of life. I care for your baby with infinite gentleness and meticulous attention to every detail. From feeding to nappy changes, daily therapeutic baths to umbilical cord care, I ensure your newborn receives the best possible care in a soothing and safe environment.
My neonatology experience allows me to quickly identify your baby's specific needs and adapt my care accordingly. I don't simply perform tasks, I create a personalised routine that respects your child's natural rhythm.
- Adapted feeding: breastfeeding, bottle, diversification, I adapt to your choices and guide you for calm and effective feeding
- Skin care and hygiene: therapeutic daily bath, gentle nappy changes, cord care, nappy rash prevention with natural products
- Continuous medical monitoring: temperature, breathing, colouration, eliminations, I detect the slightest sign requiring special attention
- Face and eye care: gentle cleansing, cradle cap prevention
- Nose and ear care with gentleness and precision
