A Guiding Hand

Susie Wilsher - Maternity Nurse

Hello, my name is Susie Wilsher and I am an experienced maternity nurse. I have over 32 years of experience with newborns.

I have travelled across the world counting hundreds of babies as 'My Cubs'. I see my job as taking care of both, the parent and the baby. Helping a New Mum to rest and recover from her delivery; Natural, Forceps, Ventouse or C-Section.

Where this is not the first child, my aim is to instill calm and stability in first time parents and to also help integrate the new baby into the family. Making sure all siblings feel comfortable and confident with the new arrival.


I ensure a new mum gets full and proper rest and sleep to aid her recovery. I am also happy to prepare meals and do whatever a new mum can't do herself.

I have been both honoured and delighted to return to clients for repeat bookings and also to be personally recommended to their families, clients and friends.
