| Whakarāpopototanga: | "Children have the right to be safe in our world and we all have a responsibility to ensure that they are. Midwives play a key role in enhancing relationships between a child and its parents for the future well-being of the child. This book explores how individual and social circumstances, and the pressures inherent in the transition to parenting, may make it difficult for mothers to respond sensitively to their babies' needs. Midwives are encouraged to use their skills of observation and analysis to provide appropriate emotional, educational and practical support to assist vulnerable women to bond with their babies and babies in turn to form secure attachments with their mothers." "Midwives are also in a unique position to recognise potential or actual child abuse and are required to take such action as is necessary to safeguard children from harm. This book provides midwives with the confidence to undertake this role effectively."--BOOK JACKET. |
