Welcome to DCW

Are you about to have a baby or just had a baby and looking for some easy-to-follow video guidance on what to expect from early parenthood? Or perhaps you are an educator, tired of outdated and lengthy maternity videos and interested in some new tools and resources for your parent education? If any of the above applies to you, then you have come to the right place!

Hello, I’m Dr Charlotte Middleton and welcome to dr charlotte’s web. Working for over twenty years in Neonatal, Paediatric and Maternity medicine, I have drawn from my own experience as a medical practitioner and educator, a TV presenter and as a mother of two, to produce seven maternity educational DVDs on common post-natal issues.

No longer than 12 minutes each, the DVDs (produced in consultation with other doctors and health professionals) are ideal for new or expectant parents and all parent educators. Subjects include:

• Jaundice in Newborn Babies
• Sleep and Settling in Newborn Babies
• Changing a Nappy, Bathing and Wrapping a Newborn
• Breastfeeding Basics
• Early Post Natal exercises
• Becoming a Dad
• Normal characteristics of Newborn Babies

Already used with great success in all Ramsay Health hospital maternity units and by parent educators Australia wide, the DVDs are available to purchase as a box set of seven. For more information see my DVD page.

“The DVDs are a fantastic resource for Parent educators. They are only 10 minutes long, are very concise and up to date.

They highlight most of the key areas discussed in Parent education and encourage discussion within the groups.

I would certainly recommend these as a great series for your Parent education sessions and am sure your parents will find the information useful and practical.”
