Mother Baby Nuture

Supporting mothers and their babies (0-6 months) through the first few months of parenthood — watch the video to listen to mum’s experiences.

Becoming a mother can be a time of great joy and also a time of mixed emotions. Mother-Baby Nurture is a 10-week group designed to support you and your infant through the early days of parenting as you get to know and respond to each other. It’s a safe, supportive and confidential space for you to share your experiences. Mother-Baby Nurture offers a gentle pace where you can simply ‘be’ with your new baby: to listen to your infant, to your own self, and to the lived experiences of other mothers.

Together as we reflect on our close relationships, and observe and respond to our baby’s needs – we start making ‘sense’ of it all – and find solid ground.

Mother-Baby Nurture is a safe place to come if you are struggling with the transition of becoming a parent, finding it hard to connect with your baby, or feeling a little isolated, anxious or low.

Mother-Baby Nurture support groups operate during the school term in Busselton and Bunbury.

Each group is facilitated by two facilitators experienced in mother-infant relationship-based work. It free to attend and no medical referral is required.

Please note, as this is not a drop in group, it is essential to have a conversation with the group facilitator to register your interest in attending.
