Inside the Postpartum Home Preparation Service Transforming New Parents’ First Days
Bringing a newborn home is one of the most transformative moments in a family’s life, but it often arrives with overwhelm, exhaustion, and a steep learning curve. While many expectant parents spend months preparing for birth, far fewer have the time, support, or energy to prepare their home for the postpartum period. That’s where the NEST postpartum home preparation service steps in. Designed to create a soft landing for new parents and parents travelling with young children, this offering blends practical support, newborn home organisation, nourishing postpartum food, thoughtful touches, and a deep understanding of what new mothers and families truly need in those early days. We interviewed Kendra Greig the founder of NEST, to explore what inspired this unique service, what families can expect, and how a beautifully prepared home can ease the transition into newborn life.

Keeping the Village Strong: How Modern Grandparent Workshops Support Families
Becoming a parent doesn’t just change your life; it reshapes the whole family. As new mums navigate sleepless nights, identity shifts, and the steep learning curve of parenthood, their own parents are experiencing a transition too. That’s where modern grandparent workshops come in. Across Australia, these programs are helping families strengthen connection, understanding, and boundaries so that everyone, parents, grandparents, and babies, can thrive together.

Mums in Bloom
Hi, I’m Mandy — a registered perinatal psychologist, mum of three (including a new baby born in 2025), and the founder of Mums in Bloom.
I support pregnant and new mothers who are finding this season more emotional, confusing, or isolating than they expected. If you’ve ever thought, “I love my baby, but I feel like I’m falling apart,” you are exactly who I support — and you are not alone.
With over a decade of experience in psychology, my work focuses on the real inner world of motherhood — the mental load, identity shifts, emotional ups and downs, and pressure to do it all “right.” I bring both my professional background and personal lived experience to create a space where you feel seen, validated, and supported.
At Mums in Bloom, I offer gentle resources for both pregnancy and postpartum, including:
🌸 Free guides for third trimester prep and those “not-what-I-expected” early weeks
🌸 Low-cost seminars on body image and postnatal mental health
🌸 A beautifully supportive 8-week online program for first-time mums in the first 6–8 months postpartum
🌸 A mini guide for partners to help them show up, step in, and stay connected during this major life transition
Whether you’re feeling anxious, flat, overwhelmed, or just unsure who you are anymore, I’m here to walk alongside you. My support is gentle, practical, and free of judgment — like chatting with a mum-friend who gets it, but with the expertise to back it up.
I believe motherhood was never meant to be done alone. Let’s make sure you don’t have to.
I am a Member of the Australian Psychological Society (APS) and fully registered with AHPRA.
Clifton Hill Physiotherapy
At Clifton Hill Physiotherapy, we are passionate about supporting women, mothers, and families through every stage of life.

Pelvic Health Physiotherapy is one of our core specialties. We provide gentle, evidence-based care for concerns such as incontinence, pelvic pain, prolapse, and pregnancy-related discomfort. Our goal is to restore comfort, function, and confidence in your everyday activities.
Our Musculoskeletal Physiotherapists work with clients of all ages to address pain, injury, and postural issues — from back and neck pain to sports injuries and postural imbalances that can occur during pregnancy or while caring for young children.
We also have a dedicated focus on Paediatric Physiotherapy, supporting babies, toddlers, and children with developmental concerns, motor skill challenges, or injury rehabilitation, working closely with families to ensure the best outcomes.
Movement is medicine, and our Clinical Pilates and Mums and Bubs Classes offer a safe, supportive way to build strength, improve posture, and reconnect with your body after birth. All sessions are led by Physiotherapists and Exercise Physiologists to ensure your exercises are tailored to your needs and safe at every stage.
At Clifton Hill Physiotherapy we are driven by a passion for women’s health and a deep commitment to providing compassionate, individualised care. Our clinic is a welcoming, family-friendly space where you can feel supported, understood, and empowered.

Every New Parent Should Have The Gift of A Birth Debrief
A birth debriefing allows you to reflect on and honor your birth experience, whether it was joyful or challenging. This supportive process provides a safe space to process emotions, gain clarity, and find closure as you step into parenthood with confidence. Your birth story deserves to be heard. This post shows how a compassionate birth debriefing session can help you process your experience, find closure, and step into parenthood with clarity and support.

Why Hiring Postpartum In-Home Support Can Transform Your Recovery
If I had my way, support would be non-negotiable and, in an ideal world, would have government funding, so everyone can access the help we all deserve. We can shape our families' and therefore babies' complete outcomes (and lives!) by providing education, but above all, support in those early days. It is essential for a mother who has given birth to rest and recover.
