For Baby's Sake
For Baby’s Sake is a therapeutic programme for expectant parents that takes a whole-family approach, starting in pregnancy and dealing with the entire cycle and history of domestic abuse, identifying and directly addressing the trauma or traumas that lie at the heart of the problem. We work with both parents to help you to break cycles of harmful behaviour, and give your baby the best possible start in life.

If you and your co-parent decide to come to For Baby’s Sake during pregnancy, your involvement may last until your baby is two years old – a really important time in a child’s life when their brain is developing and important bonds are forming.
