How is it November already???
October has been awesome, with 7 pēpi welcomed to the world. Here’s to an equally great November.

How are we all doing after the awful weather whanau? I know some are without power so if we can help, please reach out. If it’s hot food, hot water for bottles, a shower or help keeping warm, our village will help you ❤️

I hope everyone is safe on this wild and windy day! Hopefully it will ease overnight, but if not some appointments may be rescheduled. The safety of whanau is paramount, and I don’t want anyone travelling to appointments if it isn’t safe.
I’m without power at home, so have the fire roaring, but very limited internet (4G if I stand with my arm up in the air in one particular spot), so won’t be checking any results tonight.
As ever, if you are worried about you or pēpi, please call.

Thanks to a very generous mama, I now have some breast pumps available for short term loans. Perfect for when a little extra help is needed.
At Salford Street, we are always happy to accept donations of clean clothing and baby items that can be gifted to other whanau. If in doubt, just ask or pop in.

You may have heard me talking about my love of the placenta - It’s such a fascinating part of your body.
I’m always happy to offer a placental tour after your baby arrives.
