What is Postpartum Care?

A maternal nutrition & health care program to support newborn babies and soothe the tired body and
mind of mothers during the postpartum period (6-8 weeks after childbirth). Postpartum Care promotes
lifelong health by assisting the transition from childbirth to unfamiliar child-rearing environments.
Postpartum caregivers have completed professional education such as caring and visiting the mother’s
home to provide postpartum care services.

​

After giving birth, postpartum caregivers are the professional caregivers of the  mother and newborn baby, so please treat them with basic courtesy.
 

 

  • For those who have completed professional postpartum care training and are dispatched to the home, please call them"Mrs."or Ms".

 

  •  Caregivers are responsible for caring for mothers and newborn babies, so if you request excessive housework, it may interfere with the caregivers’ daily tasks. As a result, we advise not to request additional housework that is not outlined in the caregivers’ daily schedule.

 

  • There are cases in which some mothers or family members ask for heavy housework due to a lack of awareness of postpartum caregivers, or speak and act with personal humiliation. ​The postpartum caregivers are doing their best for the mothers, so please treat them with kindness and respect.
