Tracey came to me as a stand in HV for my family. After I had the baby I had numerous infections and it took a role on my mental health. The baby was my 3rd so all the stress of having 3 children, I was sick couldn’t do anything for weeks. I was so far in the pit of depression I realised I hated the name I gave the baby so I changed it.
Tracey came every couple of weeks for talks and really gave me so much advice even though I knew what I was doing by the 3rd child, I was suffering with Post natal depression so I questioned everything.
Tracey went above and beyond for me, gave me tips of breast feeding safe sleep etc. I never felt judged by her. I was so sad when she had to leave us. I always say she saved my life because I really didn’t want to live at the start of my 3rd child’s life, within 2 months of our talks I quickly changed my mind and wanted to have a fab life.
I can’t thank her enough!
