If you are planning to have a baby, are currently expecting or are with a newborn, and are navigating the complexities of parenting in a pandemic, then this chat is for you.
The first moment you discover you’re expecting a baby is one of the most significant and momentous experiences of anyone’s life.
Naturally, you experience overwhelming feelings of euphoria and elation at the wonder that is about to unfold.
However, bringing new life into a world that is navigating its course through a pandemic comes with its own additional set of challenges
So, if this is you, and you could do with a little bit of support along, with evidence-based expert information and advice, well you’re in the right place as today we welcome our special guest, Belinda Joyce
Belinda is a midwife, maternal & child health nurse with over 20 years of experience. She is also a mother of four and author of ‘Survive and Enjoy Your Baby’. Her passion is in providing safe, evidence-based advice & options to parents so they can find their own path to parenthood.
We ask Belinda questions including:

- As a maternal and child health nurse, what are some of the most common questions and concerns new parents ask?
- What are new parents missing out on most during this COVID-era?
- What are the benefits of Parent Groups when running Face to Face as opposed to online appointments?
- What health professionals would you suggest new Mums continue to use as telehealth appointments? Which health professionals do you suggest they should choose to see face to face?
- How can new parents look after their mental health?
- You’re starting a new program to support new Mums, can you tell me about it?
