'A mother is scared to hold her baby in case he dies in her arms': my job as a health visitor


Reminding parents that they are doing a great job gives me a wonderful sense of satisfaction. I explain it is not to report her, but we need to establish that she and her baby will be safe. ThursdayI visit a mother who is having trouble bonding with her newborn baby following a traumatic birth. She cries as she admits that she struggles to hold him in case he dies in her arms. FridayI visit a family who have got themselves into rent arrears and debt following the change over to universal credit.
