Knowledge is the foundation, but the “Threshold” is where that knowledge meets reality. At The Baby Element Clinic we believe the transition across the doorstep of parenthood shouldn’t be made alone. This package “bridges” the gap between your antenatal dreams and your postnatal experience, ensuring that expert clinical support is there to steady you once your baby arrives.
The Experience: We begin with a focused antenatal session in the clinic, to learn the theory of infant feeding and practice the physical skills needed to care for your newborn. Once your baby is born, you will all return to clinic for a full Clinical Feeding Assessment. We observe a full feed, assess oral function (including tongue-tie) and ensure that milk transfer is optimal for your baby. This hands-on reassurance is designed to troubleshoot any hurdles like nipple pain or supply concerns before they become overwhelming or difficult to manage.
Best for: Local parents who value face-to-face clinical reassurance and continuity of care.
What’s Included:
1 x 75-minute Antenatal Clinic Session + 1 x 60-minute Postnatal Clinical Assessment.
Physical observation of positioning, latch and baby’s weight/hydration check-in.
7 days of follow-up message support after your postnatal visit.
In The Baby Element Clinic, the transition doesn’t end when you walk out of the clinic doors. Crossing the threshold is a process, not an event. This upgrade ensures that the clinical “bridge” we build together stays strong as you settle back into your home sanctuary. It provides the physical reassurance of a clinic visit, backed by two weeks of dedicated virtual support.
What’s Added (The Upgrade):
Everything in the standard Threshold Bridge: (1x Antenatal Clinic Session + 1x Postnatal Clinical Assessment).
14 Days of Priority Message Support: Direct WhatsApp access to Nikki starting from the birth of your baby.
The “Day 3” Virtual Check-In: A scheduled 15-minute video call to refine your technique once your milk has transitioned, catching any hurdles before they escalate.
Extended Recovery Care: Support for the mother’s physical healing and emotional well-being as you navigate the first fortnight.
