Manx Care planning to offer 'blended approach' by early autumn
Manx Care says it's hoping to reinstate face-to-face sessions with new parents in the autumn.
In a statement to Manx Radio, it says it's hoping to offer a blended approach to ParentCraft classes, combining face-to-face sessions with online videos.
The initiative will be tailored around feedback to a consultation of women and families the healthcare provider is planning to carry out.
The service was removed in September last year because of issues with staffing.
The online videos, that were due to be published in February, are now available here.
Jan Ulyatt, a retired midwife who's been lobbying for them to be reinstated, says it's a really vital service:
