Lisa, baby care advisor and mum

Having a City and Guilds in Childcare as well as being a mum of two means I can give sound, practical advice to all the mums with their questions. When you speak to so many mums, you never know what you’re going to get asked next, but it’s hearing the relief in a mum’s voice when you’ve helped them that really makes my day.

My top tips

• Try, where possible, to eat with your baby as this will make them more willing to experiment with new foods.
• Begin your baby’s bedtime with some quiet time, followed by a bath and then a cuddle. Finish this by changing them into their night clothes in their bedroom. This will help them to settle.
• Never hesitate to contact us, no matter how silly or small you think it is. If It’s important to you, it’s important to us.

About me

I suffered from morning-sickness for 26 weeks straight at the beginning of my first pregnancy, and although I’d planned a home birth, my second had to be delivered by C-section. Even though it didn’t quite go to plan (it never does!) it was worth it! The first week of being a new mum is always a learning curve, but a lovely one.
