Liverpool Parent Infant Partnership (LivPIP) supports families struggling to bond with their babies due to trauma, depression or isolation by offering a range of therapeutic approaches.
The service, delivered by charity Person Shaped Support (PSS), is one of nine sites in a national network of parent infant partnerships (PIPs) set up to help build resilience among parents.
Formerly funded by Liverpool Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) - and now entirely by the National Lottery Reaching Communities Fund - LivPIP works with families from conception to when their children reach the age of two.
The team, consisting of four practitioners, take referrals from parents or through professionals working with families such as midwives, health visitors and GPs.
