NEST Family
Who we are
NEST Family are a group of healthcare professionals who are passionate about the exciting stage of life that starts once a new baby is born. We are committed to supporting new parents as they each evolve in their new parenting and relationship roles.
As a community, the healthcare community in Ireland is small and close-knit. From this community, we have been very particular in selecting some of Ireland’s most experienced medical, allied health and healthcare professionals. NEST Family experts bring their local and international evidence-based knowledge as well as their own parenting experience to share with you. Our NEST family workshops are supported and facilitated by speakers highly regarded within their individual fields of healthcare and parenting specialties. The programme of weekly themed workshops will allow access to some of Ireland’s best and most experienced educators in an informal and relaxed environment. We will work hard together to help new parents find their voices, be brave and rise to the wonderful challenges of parenthood.

Core Values
At NEST Family, we strongly believe that becoming a parent is a magical event.
New parents’ lives are often full of questions and uncertainty regarding their ability to ensure their child’s physical and emotional well-being.
Responsive and supportive parenting can have a huge impact on the child’s development and we support these approaches.

Our Vision
NEST Family aims to support the new family unit through the exciting and often-challenging early months of newborn life for the baby and new parenting life for the parents.
We have created a programme of themed weekly meetings that guides you through the important steps of a new family’s life. We aim to reduce the anxiety, uncertainty, loneliness and isolation that can often occur at this time while nurturing
parents in their new roles.

NEST Family
The Nest Family team, through their workshop bundles, aim to continue the wonderful
work done through the antenatal period in the exciting yet unknown postnatal period and
baby’s first months.
We will add some new and emerging voices into this area that will support and educate our new parents as baby grows.
