POSTNATAL SURVEY – DADS/MALE CARERS

Overview

PERINATAL FEEDBACK SURVEY – DADS /BIRTH PARTNERS

The Perinatal period is the period of time from pregnancy & up to a year after giving birth. Taking part will help us improve the support dads/birth partners receive in the perinatal period in Stockport.

We are focusing within the first critical 1001 days of child’s life (conception – 2 years) as we know that this has the most significant influence on a child’s social emotional wellbeing and development.
