Building a relationship with your baby

All sessions at Family Hubs Lewisham support you to build a relationship with your baby.

Details of the sessions and courses for new parents and carers can be found on the Programme for New Parents and Carers page.

Further Information

The relationship with your baby takes time, by watching their cues and signals you can begin to work out what they need, don't need and even what they like and don't like. Visit the NHS website on getting to know your newborn. 

Drop in at one of our Lewisham baby hubs where you can learn about topics specific to your child's needs, allow your baby to play and meet other parents and carers. Find out more about local baby hubs.

Information to help you understand and connect with your baby is available here
