She found the whole motherhood experience isolating and had no one to talk to about her experiences, worries and concerns. Which is why The New Parent Company has been established! Even as someone who was 'prepared' for having a baby (after a long career in early years) she struggled to understand her new self, her hormones and how to navigate a world where 100% of he time, body and mind was given to another human. She often felt that she had no support. The New Parent Company is there to be that support. By providing, expert advice in all aspects of baby and parent care time and a safe space, we hope to become the village of support that you need.
