Our team includes experienced child & family health nurses, specialists in lactation, psychologists, paediatricians, psychiatrists, and GP’s who work in partnership with you to help make sense of your child’s crying, sleep, feeding and behaviour. We aim to help you build a positive relationship with your child, giving you confidence and reassurance as you progress through your parenting journey. We can also support you with your own emotional well-being.

Partners are actively encouraged to participate during your stay.  Group education is also offered on a variety of parenting topics.

What our parents say
You saved my life 30 years ago. I was a new mum in a new country with no support. You guys rescued me and I will be forever grateful.
—  Deirdre
What an amazing service provided in the comfort of our own home – Tresillian Outreach home visiting. During what was a stressful time for our family, it was such a relief being able to sit down and talk in detail about what was going on for us. To make it easier the nurse who called to our home visited when our baby was sleeping which meant it was a very effective and efficient intervention because we didn't have a toddler interrupt our conversation. It is so hard to find a service that comes to your home to see the "real picture" and it reduces the stress for us parents not having to get out of house to an appointment. We cannot thank you enough for the advice and support that you have provided us.
