Postpartum support in Abbotsford
For many Fraser Valley families, the nearest grandparents are an hour or more away, and the first nights home from Abbotsford Regional Hospital are when that distance is felt most. Overnight support from 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM covers feeds, changes and settling, and leaves a log so you wake up knowing what happened.
On rural addresses toward Matsqui and the Sumas Prairie, the worker will usually be driving, so a late-evening arrival takes a little planning. Tell us about the driveway, the lighting and where to park when you book. What does not change is the price: there is no rural or distance surcharge anywhere in Abbotsford.
Daytime support suits the weeks after the first ones: a block of hours for newborn care, laundry and meals while you sleep or spend time with older children.
