Have you recently welcomed a new pēpi under 4 months old and are looking for connection, support, and a safe place to land each week?

Our SPACE course at Rachel’s House Trust is a gentle, welcoming programme created especially for parents in those early newborn months.
Each week we come together to:
🤍 Connect with other parents of young babies
🍼 Learn about baby development and the early parenting journey
☕ Share openly in a supportive space (with a yummy afternoon tea)
🤝 Build confidence and community, you don’t have to do this alone

Here’s what past participants have said about SPACE:
💬 “I enjoyed meeting new Mums and being able to chat freely about anything.”
💬 “There is a real sense of ‘family’ at SPACE.”

At Rachel’s House, we believe every parent deserves support, especially in those early weeks. SPACE offers a calm, nurturing environment where both you and your baby are welcome just as you are

📅 Starts Thursday 5th Feb - 20 week course

Breastfeeding isn't free!

Breastfeeding isn't free!

Everyone loves to say breastfeeding is “free.”

It’s not.

But no one talks about the sleepless nights, the cracked and sore ni***es, the leaking, the pump parts, the nursing bras, the pads, the supplements, the endless snacks, or the hours spent feeding while the rest of the world sleeps.

No one talks about being the only one who can comfort your baby at 2 a.m., the mental load of tracking feeds, the exhaustion of always being “on,” or how your body stops feeling like just yours for a while.

Breastfeeding isn’t free.

It’s paid for with a mother’s body, her time, her energy, and her emotional strength, and that deserves more recognition than it gets. 🤍

Our Story

The Baby Business is a well-established practice of midwives in the North Canterbury region of New Zealand. We pride ourselves on the care that we give to women and their families both individually and as a collective. We work with women/whānau throughout pregnancy, birth, and for up to 6 weeks postnatally. Our care is centred around individual needs.

We believe childbirth to be a normal physiological process that has been perfectly designed by nature to bring babies into the world. It is a primal experience that has its own rhythm and pace that should be respected and honoured, which works best when interfered with as little as possible.

We believe that women should have as much control as possible when determining their care, and should be encouraged to actively participate in decision making. When informed, supported and encouraged to follow their instincts, women are able to be active givers of birth rather than passive receivers of birth technology. Women who take responsibility for their birth journey and give birth to their babies under their own power, emerge from the experience empowered, with a new sense of their own capabilities.

Midwifery is both an art and a science. The science of midwifery overlaps with other disciplines such as medicine and nursing and involves knowing how and when to intervene to promote safety. We are on call 24/7 7 days a week. Our working hours are Mon-Fri 8-5pm. Out of these hours is for urgent/labour cares only. Lindsay Braddock Jackie Snowden Mobile: 02102928312 Mobile: 0210700751
