Homecare Service
We understand that discharged mothers should be given the continual support and care and therefore we have specially developed our Homecare Service right in the comfort of your home.

The necessary skills of handling the newborn plus the advice for mothers on her personal hygiene and checking of the perineal wound or caesarean section wound are all included.

For more information, please call our Thomson ParentCraft at 6251 4090.

Baby Massage
Touch is the physical expression of love and it is especially critical for babies.

Baby massage aims to encourage parent-child bonding and encourage body awareness, coordination and motor development. Massage can also alleviate infant gas and colic and help calm your baby, promoting a more peaceful sleep.

Conducted by our experienced parentcraft specialists, parents
will learn all the necessary skills required to give their baby massages at home. The programme also teaches about motor developmental milestones in a child and how to modify massage techniques at various stages of growth.

Here at TMC, we emphasize small class structure for a more personalized coaching. The baby should preferably be between 1-9 months old.

•
 Benefits of baby massage

First Aid Training Programme
Mishaps sometimes happen and they strike us when we least expect them to!

The First Aid Training Program by Thomson Medical Centre teaches you how to deal with an accident at home or in school.

With this programme, you will be taught the safety measures at home and how to handle emergencies like choking, drowning, epileptic fits, and basic CPR in infant and child.

Being aware of the safety hazards around us will also help us take the necessary corrective actions and prevent such accidents from happening.

For more information, please call our Thomson ParentCraft at 6251 4090.



24-hour Postnatal Hotline
A complimentary hotline service is available for postnatal mothers who require assistance and advice on issues concerning mother and baby after discharge from our hospital.
