4 Hours of Extended In-Home Postpartum Support
The First Hold is a deeper layer of postpartum home care, offering extended, nurse practitioner–led support for families who want time for recovery, feeding, and emotional wellbeing to truly land.
This extended postpartum home visit is designed for families who need more than a single check-in — allowing care to unfold slowly, adapt to real needs, and provide continuity during early recovery.

Across four hours (delivered as one longer visit or two shorter visits), your Nurse Practitioner provides:
Every visit is individualized based on your recovery, your baby’s needs, and what feels most supportive for your family.
Healing and feeding don’t happen on a schedule.
The First Hold allows patterns to be noticed, questions to surface naturally, and care to evolve in a way that feels supportive rather than overwhelming.
This model of extended postpartum home care provides continuity, reassurance, and professional presence during the most vulnerable weeks after birth.
We begin with a calm consultation to explore whether this level of postpartum support feels right for you.
This service is available to families across Durham Region and Toronto, providing nurse-led postpartum home care in the comfort of your home.
