Mental Health Support
Trying to Conceive
“When I was undergoing fertility treatment I felt so alone”
Here to Hear Australia can be there for you as a peer support person.
When you work with Here to Hear Australia for support during your fertility treatment you will receive emotional support over 6 weeks (includes 1 week before cycle, during the 4 weeks of treatment cycle and 1 week post results)
There will not be any insensitive comments telling you to “just relax” to get pregnant.
You can expect to be listened to and receive true understanding.
Contact Rachael to discuss ways you can be supported.
Expecting
Some pregnancies don’t leave you feeling like you are “glowing and beautiful”. Having someone to support you through these feelings can help.
Having someone to help out when you are on bedrest can reduce the stress.
Facing procedures during pregnancy can feel frightening and isolating. Receive support from someone that has faced some of these procedures herself.
Have a Baby
Not everyone has a village to provide support when they become parents.
Sometimes becoming a parent feels harder than expected.
The logistics of managing everything can feel overwhelming.
Sometimes the unexpected feelings that arise during the postnatal period can lead to feelings of guilt.
Gender disappointment, managing toddler and newborn, not feeling like yourself, relationship difficulties with your partner, – these feelings are real and do not make you a bad parent.
Talking with someone can help.
Practical Support
Light House Duties
Juggling life with a young family can sometimes become overwhelming. Having someone come in and reset the living area can be helpful to get back on track and lessen the burden.
Here to Hear Australia can help you to tidy and reset your kitchen, laundry and living area; perfect for those with twins/multiples.
Sorting
As children grow, and their needs change, Here to Hear Australia can help sort through toys and baby clothes to make sure all toys are age appropriate and clothes are the current sizes.
A sense of order can be restored to your house by having us sort through the things piling up.
Helping Hand
Having an extra pair of hands can make everything feel less overwhelming.
You can book in our short term home help service and have help getting the house routine back on track.
Understanding that things can pile up and get on top of us; there will not be any judgement.
