New Mother & Baby Support in Nairobi & Kiambu

The first weeks with a new baby are precious — and exhausting, especially after a caesarean section, with twins, or when family support is far away.

How I help

• Helping with baby bathing, changing, dressing and settling
• Helping mum rest and recover — preparing nourishing meals and drinks
• Washing baby clothes and keeping the nursery area tidy
• An extra pair of hands so mum can sleep, shower or eat in peace
• Day or overnight support, as agreed

Non-medical support only

Clinical care for mother and baby — wound checks, breastfeeding difficulties that need specialist help, jaundice, fever or any illness — must be handled by a midwife, nurse, or doctor. I support breastfeeding mothers practically (comfort, water, rest) and encourage them to contact their clinic or a lactation specialist when needed.

Know the warning signs

For baby: poor feeding, fever, unusual drowsiness, breathing difficulty or yellow skin. For mum: heavy bleeding, fever, severe headache, or feeling very low or unable to cope. Contact your hospital or doctor promptly — in an emergency, call 999 or 112.
