A little bit about me
Karen Prunty
RGN, RCN, CIMI
I am a mum of 4 and a dual qualified Nurse (General Nurse and Children's Nurse) and I have been working as a children's Nurse for the past 11 years. My passion lies with Neonatal care and I work as a Neonatal Nurse Specialist. I am very passionate about my work and enjoy helping parents get to know their babies, and often witness the 'first times' for many of these babies.
​
I enjoy supporting parents to be and new parents, and helping them become confident in caring for their new little baby. No question is ever too small when it comes to your baby.
​
When a baby is born, so too is a parent.
​
Every baby is different and from my baby preparation classes, I will talk to you about baby cues, skin to skin, newborn care such as baths, nails and lots more!!
Once your baby is here, we have several online and in person classes available to attend with your baby, meeting other parents and spending bonding time with your baby.
I really enjoy working with parents and passing on my knowledge, helping parents to become confident and building a strong bond with their baby.
