Genuinely cares for the families she works with

Posted By Bonnie53

"Genuinely cares for the families she works with"

About: Children and Young People Services / Health Visiting

(as a parent/guardian),

Mary has been our health visitor for our daughter who is 3 months old. Mary has been a calm, caring, and knowledgeable presence for us and has been available for any questions we’ve had since becoming new parents. I really look forward to her visits and she always provides really good advice and tips. You can tell she really loves her job and genuinely cares for the families she works with!

Hi Bonnie53, thank you for the lovely feedback on the care you have received from Mary. We know that being a new parent is a steep learning curve and there are so many people keen to offer advice and guidance to you. But often this advice can be conflicting, unreliable and often overwhelming. Speaking to your health visitor will give you reliable evidence based advice and we can dispel a lot of the myths surrounding parenting so I am delighted that you have built a trusting relationship with Mary. You can reach out to her anytime you need her guidance and support. We wish you well on your parenting journey!
