I could help empower other women

Posted By microscopiumqy97

"I could help empower other women"

About: Eastwood Children's Centre

(as a service user),

After really positive experiences attending the BABES groups over the years as a new mum, I was encouraged to attend breastfeeding peer support so I could help other mums with the same situations and help empower other women to make informed choices in their parenting and breastfeeding journeys.

I have found the experience enjoyable and the skills I have gained really valuable. Currently I am a stay at home mum to four young children but I hope that the experience I have gained will help me gain employment when the time comes to return to work in the future.

In particular Sandra and Clare have been so wonderful and encouraging during my time in Surestart - they are wonderful!

dear microscopiumqy97,

Thank you for taking the time to post your comments on this forum, Children's Centre staff and peer supporters really appreciate all the feedback we receive as this helps us to plan our services in the future.

"I could help empower other women" are powerful words and you say that your experience of attending the BABES Group and your transition to become a peer supporter has been a positive, enjoyable and wonderful experience!

Your positive outlook and your experience of sharing knowledge and supporting other mums is a credit to you. Thank you for your kind words.

May I wish you all the best and every success.

Thank you

Tina.
