Meet Our Founder
Hi, I'm Ruth
The inspiration behind New Mum Haven came from one of the most vulnerable seasons of my life.
After giving birth by Caesarean section, I found myself caring for my newborn in hospital while still recovering from major surgery. Every movement was painful, every night was exhausting — and I quickly realised how difficult it is for a new mother to heal when she has little or no support.
Instead of resting and recovering, I was lifting my baby, changing nappies, soothing cries, and navigating those precious first days largely on my own. It was physically draining and emotionally overwhelming — an experience I will never forget.
Looking back, I often say that if I could do it again, one of the first things I would invest in is an experienced postpartum support professional. Having someone there to care for my baby while I rested would have made a world of difference.
That experience ignited a passion in me.
I knew I couldn't be the only mother facing this reality. I began dreaming of a service that would ensure mothers receive the care, rest, and support they deserve from the very beginning — not weeks later, but from the hospital through the transition back home.
That dream became New Mum Haven.
Today, New Mum Haven provides compassionate postpartum care starting from the hospital and continuing at home — supporting mothers through recovery while offering expert newborn care, so families can experience those early days with more peace, confidence, and joy.
Our mission is simple: to make sure no new mum has to walk through postpartum recovery alone.
Thank you for trusting New Mum Haven to be part of your motherhood journey. It is our privilege to walk beside you — with helping hands and healing hearts.
Ruth
Founder, New Mum Haven
