Parenthood Support: 4th Trimester, Early Parenthood & Return to Work

Practical, personalised support for life after baby—whether you’re still on leave, planning your return, or already back at work.

Parenting is a full-time job—and balancing it with work, home life, and your own needs can feel like too much. You’re not alone—and you don’t have to do it all alone

You can love your family and still find it hard.
Feeling overwhelmed doesn’t mean you’re failing. It just means support could help

Things I Often Hear from Parents:

  • ​“I can’t even get out for a walk or do something for myself.”

  • “I feel guilty resting or enjoying a hobby.”

  • “I’m so tired. I forget things all the time.”

  • “How will I manage work, home, and the baby?”

  • “I don’t think I’m ready to go back.”

  • “How do I talk to work about flexible hours or leave?”

  • “What supports am I entitled to?”

How can I help ?

I’m a Clinical Specialist Occupational Therapist with over 20 years’ experience—and a mum of three. I understand both the professional and personal sides of navigating this transition.

 

In my hospital-based role, I supported people returning to work or daily life after illness—including many parents juggling fatigue, cognitive load, and multiple demands. Now, I also support parents without a diagnosis who simply feel stretched and exhausted.

 

Whether you're in survival mode or just need a reset, I help you move forward with more confidence, calm, and clarity.
