I was really impressed with the ward (castle may). The nursing staff were friendly and helpful, and having a private room was fantastic given that my baby doesn’t feed as well if there’s too much noise and stimuli.
My only negative feedback is about the lack of suitable space in the room to breast feed. It wasn’t possible to comfortably feed. This was an issue for us because we had been admitted due to low weight and we were receiving breast feeding support during our stay.
Having some nursing chairs available that could be moved around as and when they are needed could be really helpful for people in a position like mine.
