Valley Cushion Hire

Many new mums experience perineal pain following birth, and this can affect the way they are able to feed and care for their baby. The cushion's purpose is to provide relief from the discomfort of sitting after an episiotomy, tearing, stitches, bruising, or any perineal trauma.

The Valley Cushion was scientifically designed as an alternative to the ring cushion which has proved to be unsatisfactory over the years. It has two adjustable inflatable bags position either side of a unique central channel, allowing you to adjust the level of support, while ensuring that sore areas are kept free from painful pressure.

The Valley Cushion is hygienic and easy to use, and feedback from mothers who have used it has been hugely positive, in fact, some mothers have said that they would have been less inclined to breastfeed in the early days, if it weren't for the cushion. The NCT hires out Valley Cushions to anyone who needs them, both members and non-members.

Prices for hire:

£15.00 for the first 5 days

£2.00 per day thereafter

Included is the cost of replacing the cover at £5 each.
