The Holding Space

Ongoing In-Home Postpartum Nursing Support

The Holding Space offers ongoing postpartum home care for families who want continued clinical support after an initial visit with Latched & Bloom.

This service is designed to provide continuity — allowing you to work with a Nurse Practitioner who already knows your history, your recovery, and your baby’s needs.

Support evolves as you do, offering a steady clinical presence during the weeks when questions, adjustments, and new challenges naturally arise.

Who This Ongoing Postpartum Care is For

The Holding Space is available to families who have already received care through:

  • The First Touch

  • The First Hold

  • The Sanctuary

 

This ensures continuity, clinical safety, and personalized care.

 

The Holding Space is ideal for families who:

Want continuity with a clinician who already knows their story

Want continuity with a clinician who already knows their story

Value having a familiar presence during the early weeks

Want follow-up support for feeding, recovery, or emotional wellbeing

What’s Included in ongoing postpartum support

Each visit is tailored to what is happening for you now and may include:

  • continued assessment of physical postpartum recovery

  • ongoing infant feeding and newborn care support

  • emotional and mental wellbeing guidance

  • sleep and adjustment support

  • evolving care plans based on your current needs

  • space for questions without rushing

 

Care is flexible, responsive, and designed to adapt as your baby grows and your recovery unfolds.

 

What Ongoing Postpartum Care Feels Like

This level of care feels familiar, grounded, and steady.

You are not re-explaining your story. You are not starting from scratch. Your clinician already understands your context.

Support unfolds through an ongoing relationship — allowing patterns to be noticed, concerns to be addressed early, and care to feel integrated into daily life.

Why continuity in postpartum care matters

Postpartum is not a single appointment.

New questions arise. Feeding evolves. Emotional needs shift. Recovery changes.

The Holding Space provides continuity-based postpartum home care, so families feel supported beyond the initial visit — with clinical presence that adapts as needs change.

This model allows for:

  • early identification of emerging concerns

  • proactive support instead of crisis response

  • emotional safety and trust

  • calmer, more confident early parenting

How To begin

Access to The Holding Space begins with one of the following: The First Touch, The First Hold, The Sanctuary.

If you are an existing Latched & Bloom client, we will recommend this level of care when ongoing support feels clinically appropriate. If you’re new, we’ll begin with The First Touch or The First Hold to get to know you and your baby first.

This service is available to families across Durham Region and Toronto.
