About Sam, The Motherhood Mentor

Sam is an extremely knowledgeable and professional whose experience and support we relied upon tremendously - we had numerous questions and concerns being first time parents. Sam always took the time to answer questions and offer advice in a thoughtful and intelligent manner, while always being careful not to impose her views.
Sam was also incredibly supportive of me. I had an emergency c-section and some complications which led to me being unprepared both physically and emotionally for the first few weeks at home with a newborn baby.
Without Sam’s support, I am not sure how I could have coped during the first few weeks at home. Thanks in large part to this support, I was able to establish and maintain a good breast feeding routine, which is still in place to date.

I believe it would be hard for anyone to top her. Firstly Samantha is a very warm naturally caring person and my baby loved her. Secondly she seemed to put P in a routine easily and taught me how to continue with it. I would say her experience and considerable childcare knowledge proved invaluable.
One of the best things about Samantha is the way she fitted into our family life. She managed to be a part of our family striking the perfect balance of assisting us, being wonderfully friendly and yet also discreet.

We have known Sam since she came to work with us, since the birth of our fourth son in July 2016.
Our son was born with bilateral talipes so he had to have a bit of extra care as a newborn and Sam was extremely helpful and supportive every step of the way. Sam is very kind, positive, adaptable, extremely organised and always smiling. They formed a special bond which made our lives easier by being able to leave him for anything from an hour to a few days as our jobs dictate we sometimes both need to be away and we know & trust he’s in safe hands.
We consider Sam a member of our family and continue to stay in touch to this day. She is an amazing person, who’s natural love for her job shines through.

She arrived and not only understood the boys but they very quickly fell in love with her and provided an instant relief to what had been a pretty unsettled and distressing time for all.
We miss her every day, and I would recommend her to anyone, she particularly suited our slightly eccentric and laid back (disorganised) household, with her natural ability to read a situation and adapt to whatever is thrown her way.

With Sam I always felt that my children were in the best possible hands. She is a very fun person to be around, totally flexible, understanding, considerate, loving, patient and above all incredibly experienced and can confidently handle any situation thrown at her in a calm and efficient way. As a mother she made me feel totally supported and more confident, she also went out of her way on many occasions to make life with a newborn not just manageable but a wonderful experience.
Anyone lucky enough to book Sam should know that the wellbeing of them and their child couldn’t be in better hands.

and knowledgeable and helped enormously with all our questions. Sam came to help us when my daughter was two weeks old and we were still very unsure of what we were doing!

She is the loveliest, warmest person to have around, we felt like we had known her for years! Thank you Sam for all your wonderful help & support.

When Sam and I made contact on the phone I knew instantly that we would get on. She has such a happy disposition you can’t help smile when you talk to her, she would lift anyone’s spirits. Sam is worth her weight in gold - We would never have experienced the what we did, they way we did, without sam’s support, knowledge, trust and experience. She is a natural endorphin!!!

It will be the best money you spend in your pregnancy, sacrifice the posh buggy and have a “Sam” instead."

Sam’s love and natural ability working with babies and new mothers is evident. I always felt George was in the best possible hands and totally trusted Sam and it was lovely to see George flourish under Sam’s guidance and care.

I would not hesitate to recommend Sam to any new mother, she is not only an amazing maternity nurse, but a warm and truly remarkable person, who’s emotional & practical support was immeasurable to me, as a new mother.

I found her knowledge and experience invaluable, she guided me and the baby helping me to understand him and his needs much better which in turn greatly increased my confidence in looking after him.
Perhaps most importantly Sam had a really wonderful way with the baby. She was very gentle, loving, and kind, and immediately I had complete trust in her and in her looking after him. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sam to any family needing some nurturing support and guidance.
