About: Community Child Health / Health Visiting Service

(as a service user),

My Health Visitor, Nicola, from Holywood Arches has been a great source of support to me for the last 2 years. I have two boys-   One with eating issues and one who had weight issues and a tongue tie. Nicola has been not only lovely but also extremely supportive to me. She listened to all my concerns and took me seriously and went out of her way to provide advice. When she didn’t have answers she referred me on. For example, I had problems breastfeeding my second child because of his tongue tie and Nicola immediately referred me to a Lactation Consultant. She is always at the end of the phone if I have any worries and I can honestly say she’s made a huge (positive) difference to my experience as a mother. My third child is now on that way and I’m so grateful that I’ll have Nicola to rely on for information and support. Having a good Health Visitor can make a profound difference when dealing with worries and problems when bringing up children.   Thanks Nicola!
