Case Study: Baby S

A clear example of our impact is the case of Baby S, referred to us by a London-based safeguarding team. The referral was urgentโ€”Baby Sโ€™s mother was experiencing acute psychosis and was deemed a significant risk to both herself and her unborn child. Within one hour of receiving the referral, Newcross had a skilled, compassionate support worker on-site in the hospital, providing 1:1 supervision and emotional reassurance. Our team quickly built trust with Baby Sโ€™s mother, helping her to remain settled and engaged with clinical staff, allowing hospital teams to focus on the wider ward and patients. Following the birth of Baby S,our support continuedโ€”working alongside the perinatal mental health team, paediatrics, and social services to promote safe bonding and monitor risk. Initially, it was expected that Baby S would need to be placed into foster care immediately. However, through the consistency and expertise of our team, and the motherโ€™s remarkable progress with the right support, those plans changed. Our support transitioned seamlessly into the community, with 6 weeks of intensive care at home to maintain safety, stability, and ongoing assessment. With continued encouragement, practical help, and emotional support, Baby Sโ€™s mother has now established a stable routine, is actively engaging in her care plan, and is successfully parenting her childโ€”outcomes that once felt unachievable.
