We have a lovely new room in the hub for our Partington drop in ❤️

Come along for a chat and help with any feeding challenges, but you don’t have to have a problem to come along.

Sometimes all you need is some reassurance or a chat with someone who understands.

We are here for our Trafford families providing empathic, gentle and evidence based support

Your Voice, Your Care! 🗣️✨

It was Patient Experience Week 2026 last week, and at Trafford Local Care Organisation (TLCO) 0-19 Children's Services, we’re celebrating the power of feedback!

From our Infant Feeding Team’s appearance on BBC Breakfast to our updated ‘First Foods’ sessions, your insights are directly improving how we support families in Trafford. Whether it’s through School Nursing or Health Visiting, we are listening, learning, and leading with care.

A huge shoutout to Health Visitor Jane Broadbent and our Healthy Schools teams for their award-winning dedication to patient experience! 🏆

Thank you to the Breastfeeding Network.

✨Caesarean Awareness Month✨
Recovering from a caesarean can be tough, and it’s completely normal to need support while your body heals 💜
Moving around may feel painful at first, which is why pain relief is so important. For some, paracetamol and ibuprofen are enough, but many mums will need something stronger.
Strong painkillers are usually not needed for more than a few days, but everyone’s experience is different. If you’re in pain, please let someone know and ask for the support you need.
Find out more about C-sections and breastfeeding in our factsheet:
