Bringing your baby home after a long stay in the neonatal unit is a moment you have been waiting for – a time filled with joy, relief, and perhaps a bit of uncertainty. It is normal that while this new chapter is full of anticipation, it can also bring new challenges. The information on these pages is here to guide you through the transition from hospital to home, and to support you as your baby grows and develops in the months and years ahead.
