Family Support Services

Strengthening Families, Building Resilient Communities

At Ayan Maternity, we recognize that the journey to parenthood extends beyond pregnancy and childbirth—it encompasses the ongoing well-being of the entire family. Our Family Support Services are designed to provide parents and caregivers with the resources, education, and community connections they need to thrive during and after the perinatal period.

Our services go beyond traditional maternal care by addressing the emotional, social, and practical needs of parents and caregivers. We offer personalized assistance that helps families navigate the challenges of pregnancy, postpartum recovery, infant care, and parenting, ensuring that they receive holistic, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental support.

Comprehensive Support for Families

1. Parenting Education & Workshops

Ayan Maternity provides interactive parenting classes and workshops to equip parents with the knowledge and skills to nurture their children confidently. Our topics include:

  • Newborn and infant care (feeding, sleeping, and development)

  • Toddler and child development milestones

  • Discipline and positive parenting strategies

  • Balancing work and family life

  • Mental health and self-care for parents

 

Our workshops also include specialized programs such as our Daddy Workshops, which focus on fatherhood involvement, and Community Maternal Education Classes, which promote maternal self-advocacy and informed decision-making.

 

2. Emotional & Mental Health Support

The postpartum period can bring about emotional and psychological challenges, including postpartum depression, anxiety, and stress related to parenting. Ayan Maternity provides:

  • Peer support groups where parents can share their experiences and receive encouragement.

  • One-on-one guidance to help parents cope with stress, sleep deprivation, and role adjustments.

  • Referrals to mental health professionals for parents experiencing significant emotional distress.

 

3. Social Service Connections & Resource Navigation

We understand that many families face economic, housing, and healthcare challenges that impact their ability to provide a stable environment for their children. Our team connects families with local resources and programs, including:

  • Housing assistance and family shelters

  • Food security programs and nutrition services

  • Childcare and early childhood education programs

  • Employment and financial assistance resources

  • Healthcare and insurance navigation

 

Providing these essential connections ensures that families receive the comprehensive care and stability they need to succeed.

 

4. In-Home Family Support Services

We offer in-home visits for families requiring more personalized care. During these visits, trained professionals provide hands-on support. Whether it’s assistance with newborn care, meal preparation, or postpartum recovery guidance, our goal is to help families adjust to their new routines confidently and efficiently.
