What parents say
Thank you for running these sessions.
Having had a few trips to A&E because having a newborn is, well, completely new to us, and has been so often the advice when we have contacted 111 or our GP, these workshops have been very helpful and armed us with much greater knowledge of what might be wrong and what to do and when.
If you’re a first-time parent – then you NEED Shiri in your life.
Our move to London meant we were separated from our entire support network. While all the advice you get from family and friends is well-intentioned, we found that it wasn’t sufficient to help us confidently act in any given situation – especially as they weren’t even in the same time zone!
Having Shiri to call and talk to – especially when unexpected medical situations come up, is absolutely invaluable. When they have a temperature, or a cough, or are fussy and unsettled. As a first-time parent, you don’t always know how to respond – and you need someone you can touch base with who can quickly help you assess what’s going on, in the moment.
My husband and I don’t have much baby experience and it has been wonderful to be able to ask an expert when we have questions that arise. Dr. Lejay’s support and guidance has been invaluable as we get through the early weeks of my son’s life. I really appreciated her input when we have received conflicting information from other healthcare providers and when we have questions where a nuanced answer is required. Her calm approach and ability to explain medical concepts in ways non-medical parents can understand has helped us tremendously!
Thanks Shiri!
