New Mama & Parent One-Stop Drop-in

In conjunction with Tufnell Park Parents, welcome to Moon Community Health CIC’s monthly New Mama & Parent One-Stop Drop-in at Highgate Newtown Community Centre. We want to make things as easy as possible for you, as you negotiate life with a tiny human.

It’s a two hour free drop-in session, where you can find support from a variety of practitioners, who’ll either be able to help you on the day or signpost you to the person or place that’ll be of most benefit to you.

It’ll also be a space that you can meet other Mamas and parents in your community, over a cuppa, to laugh and cry together about walking the path of parenthood.

There’s no minimum or maximum age of your little one - everyone’s welcome!

At March’s drop-in you’ll find:

1-2-1 and Group Consultations

  • A Baby & Child Sleep Consultant: Nicky Mulligan will be able to answer your questions about your baby’s sleep.
  • Baby-Wearing Consultant: Jasmin McGonigle will be able to fit check with your sling/carrier, to ensure baby is safe and you’re both comfy
  • A Postnatal Mama & Baby Expert: Melanie Appleby will be able to help you navigate through your life with a new baby.
  • A Breastfeeding/Lactation Consultant: Thomasina Lowe will be able to talk to you about your feeding journey and support you by looking at baby’s latch and your positioning. 
  • Baby Weaning Expert: Anna Lawton will be able to help you navigate through the world of weaning.

The next Drop-in Session is from 10.30am to 12.30pm - it’s free, but you can register your interest below.

📰 What’s the latest in Women's Health News 📰 ⭕ What’s in a Name? ⭕ Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) has been renamed as Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS). This change is important as it reclassifies the condition from a reproductive issue to a systemic endocrine and metabolic disorder. The removal of ‘cyst’ reflects an inaccuracy in terminology, as what this actually denotes is arrested ovarian follicles. The inclusion of ‘metabolic’ highlights that this condition can affect the whole body and should be treated as such. ⭕ Cancer Treatment Wins ⭕ The NHS is now offering a new targeted therapy (mirvetuximab soravtansine) for women and people living with ovarian cancer. The drug combines a ‘homing’ antibody with a cancer-killing medicine which attaches to ovarian cancer cells. This means that many living with ovarian cancer won’t have to suffer through chemotherapy. As patient Patricia Hill says, “it’s been incredibly positive… this is the first time that I’ve actually been able to get on with my life.” ⭕ English Caesarean Birth Rates ⭕ A recent report has highlighted that over 40% of births in England are now surgical, one of the highest rates in the world. This is an increase not reflected in other European countries or the USA. The report cites “demographic, health, social and health system changes in England”. However, this has not been accompanied by an improvement in outcomes for babies and maternal deaths have increased. Find out more: Ambia, J., Alderdice, F., Knight, M., Rowe, R., Sanders, J. & Carson, C. (2026). Short report: International comparison of caesarean birth rates, 2020 – 2025. University of Oxford. ⭕ National Maternity and Neonatal Taskforce ⭕ The independent investigation by Baroness Amos, which underpins the National Maternity and Neonatal Taskforce, is due to release its final report with recommendations later this month. Following this, the Taskforce will publish a new national action plan for maternity care – watch this space.
