Hi,

Welcome to my App devoted to the healthcare of babies from birth to six months of age.

As a dad of 5 kids myself, I know just how very special and exciting it is looking after a newborn baby, but also how anxious it can make you feel and just what a responsible job it really is. Sometimes it can be terrifying.

The thing is, your baby doesn’t come with an instruction manual and sometimes your partner, your own mum or grandmother are not on hand or have the experience to help either. But you will learn from your baby and your baby of course will learn from you.

What I’m telling you here can’t be a substitute for the direct advice you get from your health visitor or family doctor, who can see your baby first-hand. But it’s a really good start and hopefully it’ll answer most of those questions you really need to know when the chips are down, it’s the middle of the night, you’re at your wits’ end and there is no-one else around to help.
