In France, "une infirmière puéricultrice" refers to a specialized nurse who focuses on caring for infants and young children. This role involves providing medical attention, support, and assistance to babies and toddlers from birth to 6 years old and behond.
Infirmières puéricultrices are highly trained and qualified healthcare professionals who possess specialized knowledge in child development, pediatric care, and various aspects of early childhood health. They play a crucial role in promoting the well-being of young children, ensuring they receive proper medical care, vaccinations, and developmental assessments.
Dear Londoner Parents,
But, What is a Puericultrice ?
I am so happy to blend my french expertise to your.
I dedicate my passion to support parents and their newborn during the early months. Initially practising as a "infirmière puericultrice" at Necker’s hospital (equivalent of Great Ormond hospital) ,
and worked for the official Helpline Breastfeeding regional support as a Lactation Consultant in Paris, I am now extending all of it in London.
These nurses often work in hospitals, pediatric clinics, and community healthcare settings, offering guidance andsupport to parents on various aspects of childcare, including nutrition, hygiene, and overall health. They also conduct regular check-ups and monitor children's growth and development milestones.
In essence, "une infirmière puéricultrice" is a nurturing and caring professional who dedicates her expertise to ensuring the health and welfare of young children in France.
The services offered by Mum Mode by Louise la puericultrice are not a substitute for medical care for your child or for perinatal care by a midwife. Despite my French state diploma as a paediatric nurse, I am not (yet) officially NMC registered in the UK, so in case of doubt, always consult your doctor/midwife.
