Understanding how to support your body during this time can make a profound difference in how you heal, rebuild, and feel in early motherhood.

The reality is this: while Australia has excellent maternity care, structured postpartum support in Australia is not automatically built into the system. And yet postpartum is when support matters most. This guide will show you how to organise pregnancy support, birth support services, and most importantly, proactive postpartum support in Australia, so you are not left navigating the fourth trimester alone.

The end of the year can feel like a whirlwind, especially for pregnant and postpartum mothers. While the world speeds up with celebrations, to-do lists, family dynamics, and pressure to “make it magical,” many mums quietly feel stretched thin, overwhelmed, or emotionally pulled in a dozen directions.

A moment to honour the year you lived, the glimmers that kept you going, and the version of you that is emerging.

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.

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.
