break stigmas around asking for + receiving help
Seeking help can be incredibly difficult in the society we are currently parenting in - There are many societal pressures, stigmas and a lack of awareness around maternal mental health and wellbeing
By accessing a practical and holistic service that is dedicated to the role of postpartum and parental support, there is a dynamic of ease in relation to asking for and receiving help
-
Support the entire home
We are not just here to support mothers - we are here for fathers, parenting partners, older children and the entire family - knowing that all are innately interconnected
By holding the mother, we hold the entire home - creating space for our future generations to grow in homes where more time is available where love, stability and safety can flourish
-
Support rest and recovery
In many cultures around the world, postpartum is held so deeply - receiving support from family, promoting rest, recovery and bonding for new parents is a standard postpartum practice around the globe.
New Zealand is a nation full of differing family dynamics with a lot of our community parenting without our family or village - Dew Drops is here as your alternate village, supporting you to rest, recover and embrace postpartum and parenthood - showing up as your mum or aunt would - without any unsolicited comments!
-
The gift of time
‘it goes so fast’ and ‘the days are long but the years are short’ is something we hear often in parenthood
While it can be an eye-roll of a cliché to hear on our harder days, there is some truth to these sayings - time sure does become more fleeting as our hearts a d calendars fill alongside our little ones
Our tailor made support quite literally buys you time - time to do whatever it is you feel you need - time for self, time to connect, rest and recover and time with your littlest ones - the most precious gift we can give our babies
Our services and values demonstrate a profound awareness of the physical and emotional needs of new mothers and parents, highlighting the necessity for various forms of support during this crucial and vulnerable period.
In a society where many nurturing traditions of the elusive 'village' are diminishing in our communities, new families are beginning their journey at a considerable disadvantage.
It is widely recognized that the first 1,000 days of a child's life are crucial, as this phase establishes the groundwork for lifelong health, cognitive skills, and emotional well-being.
By providing support to new mothers, parents, and their entire families, we help alleviate some of the overwhelm and stress that can occur at any point in the parenting journey, fostering a more gradual and supported environment at home.
When we deeply support parents, we ultimately strengthen our society and the ways in which we nurture future generations and this is something we are so passionate about here at Dew Drops Postpartum!
