Building Attachment and Bonds Service (BABS) – Knowsley

Building Bonds and Breaking Cycles' – The Importance of Supporting Parent and Infant Mental Health and Building Bonds in Knowsley'

Who we are?

Our national award-winning service supports parents to build secure attachments and loving bonds with their babies, whilst breaking negative life cycles.

We provide easy to access community based therapeutic interventions and support, for pregnant women, new parents and their partners, who are struggling with their emotional wellbeing and/or adjusting to their newborn baby.

By offering attachment-based therapeutic support in the antenatal/postnatal period, we are able to help parents 'separate out' all of the difficulties that get in the way and impact on the parent-infant bond and relationship.

We are a friendly team of Clinical Psychologists, Midwives and Volunteers who are passionate and committed to supporting parents and infants in the Knowsley community.

We aim to support parents to manage their mental health, emotional wellbeing and build happy, secure and loving relationships with their babies. Sessions are offered to families either in the family home or at Knowsley Children's Centre. Find out how to get in touch over on our website http://www.nwbh.nhs.uk/babs-knowsley
