A Baby in the Family DVD

Your first baby can turn life upside down! Sleepless nights, a house that isn’t always organised and tidy, and often a change in the way you relate to your partner.

The overwhelming sense of love that comes with every baby can turn into sheer exhaustion, particularly in the first few months.

The health professionals at Tresillian Family Care Centres, Australia’s largest Child and Family Health facility, have overseen the production of this video. The primary aim of “A Baby in the Family” is to help parents gain greater insight and understanding into what it means to become a parent.

“A Baby in the Family” features parents discussing issues that they found difficult. There’s also some great tips from Child & Family Health Professionals on everything from settling to child development.

Tresillian Family Care Centres has been offering professional help and practical advice to parents since 1919. Based in Sydney at Belmore, Willoughby, Wollstonecraft and Penrith, our team of Child & Family Health Nurses, Paediatricians, Psychiatrists, Psychologists and Social Workers help parents to gain confidence in their own parenting skills.
