Learning that fits around your baby, not the other way around
Watch whenever your baby lets you
Courses are available on demand across all devices. No schedules to keep, no live sessions to fit around a newborn. Watch for ten minutes between feeds or a full module after your baby sleeps, whenever the moment allows.
Come back whenever you need to
Babies change quickly and so do your questions. Your course access never expires. Revisit any module as your baby grows, share PDF summaries with your partner or family, or go back to something you want to hear again.
Straight answers, no second-guessing
Every module is built around questions parents actually ask: from what your paediatrician didn't have time to explain to what your mother-in-law insists is true. You will finish knowing what to watch for, what to do, and when to seek help.
Every new parent is asking the same questions
You are not alone in any of this. These are the questions that reach us most, and every one of them is answered inside a ParentMed course.
My baby's breathing sounds different. Is this normal or do I need to worry?
My mother, my mother-in-law and three WhatsApp groups all have different advice. Who do I trust?
My paediatrician appointment is too short. I leave with more questions than I came in with.
I don't always know when something is serious enough to act on.
My baby has a rash, a temperature, hasn't gained weight and Google says five different things. What is actually urgent?
I want the very best for my baby. I just want to make sure I'm giving it to them.
Indian babies face health challenges shaped by climate, culture and a healthcare system that rarely gives parents enough time. ParentMed brings NHS clinical expertise directly to the questions Indian families are actually living with so you get world-class guidance built around the reality you are parenting in, not a textbook written for somewhere else.

Why we built
ParentMed
ParentMed team has spent decades treating South Asian children in the NHS. We know the questions Indian parents carry and we know how hard it is to get clear answers in a five-minute appointment or a WhatsApp group. We built this to change that. Watch to hear why, in our own words."
Three doctors. One shared mission.
Clinical Lead, Special Care Baby Unit
Dr Clare Hollingsworth
Consultant Paediatrician · BM (Hons), MRCPCH, PGCert Child Health
Clare leads the Special Care Baby Unit at her NHS hospital and specialises in the neurodevelopmental follow-up of premature and vulnerable babies alongside paediatric critical care. She brings a level of clinical depth that only comes from years at the most demanding end of newborn medicine, combined with a personal understanding of early parenthood that makes her one of the most empathetic teachers on the team. Clare's work with premature and vulnerable babies across diverse communities gives her a rare understanding of how newborn care needs shift across different environments and health systems.
General Paediatrics and Neonatal Intensive Care
Dr Munisha Balain
Consultant Paediatrician · MBBS, MRCPCH, PGDip Child Health
Munisha has spent her career across the full range of paediatric medicine, from neonatal intensive care to general paediatrics in hospitals across the UK. She is known for her ability to make complex clinical situations feel manageable. Her teaching philosophy is straightforward: when parents understand what is happening and why, they make better decisions for their baby. Having worked closely with South Asian families throughout her NHS career, Munisha understands the cultural context Indian parents navigate, from joint family feeding opinions to health concerns shaped by Indian climates and diets.
Specialist in Paediatric Respiratory Medicine
Dr Will Verling
Consultant Paediatrician · MBBS, BSc (Hons), MRCPCH, PGCert
Will has practised across the UK and Australia with a focus on paediatric respiratory medicine. Breathing concerns are among the most common and most frightening questions new parents face, and Will has spent his career becoming one of the most experienced doctors in the NHS at answering them. He built the Take a Deep Breath course so parents have a clear, clinical answer before they ever need one. Respiratory concerns look different in high-pollution cities and humid climates. Will built this course knowing that the breathing questions Indian parents face are not always the same ones answered in Western parenting books.
