Visiting your baby
Space can be cramped in the nursery, but please don’t be afraid of ‘being in the way’. You may spend as much time as you wish with your baby.When your baby is stable the nurses will help you to hold your baby, and assist you in taking part in the day to day care of your baby.
Siblings are welcome, but your young children need to be with an adult who can supervise them at all times.
Other children are allowed to visit for a brief period, but must be with an adult who can supervise them at all times.
Grandparents, other family members and friends are all welcome.
However, we ask you to limit visitors to two at a time.
All visitors must be accompanied by a parent.
In exceptional circumstances permission can be obtained for specific family or friends to visit in your absence. This will require the parent’s written permission and the in-charge nurse to witness.These visitors must always ask at the reception desk if it is appropriate to visit, before entering the nursery.
Please do not bring your children or other visitors to the nursery if they have a cold, diarrhoea, vomiting or any other signs of infection. If in any doubt, check with the nursing staff.
Please no food or hot drinks in the nursery.
