Our Coronavirus Action Plan

Working with babies is our livelihood and we have always had a commitment to the health and safety of the families we visit.

All year round, we are more vigilant than most when it comes to the spread of viruses and infections – even before recent global events.
Yet, babies are still being born and we still want you to celebrate the joy that comes with new life, especially at this time.

And since going into the outside world may be discouraged right now, we come to you so you can minimise the risk and have control over your environment.

Our reassurance to you and our staff is that we have already implemented a Covid-19 Action Plan, which we have devised for customer peace of mind and safety. We would like to assure you that there is no reason to reschedule any session at this time, as we are taking every precaution advised by the state and federal health sectors.

Our staff are continually monitoring their health and we are also checking on the health of clients before attending each session – we absolutely never go to work sick, or in the home of a sick client.

At Grain & Weave, we are taking new positive actions by ensuring the following procedures are in place:

• Washing hands before, after and during each session is required, following the recommended NSW health guidelines.

• We do not make physical contact with you, the client, as this is discouraged at this time.

• We will require you to assist by touching or moving your baby, and we will instruct you on how best to do this to minimise our contact with your baby. If absolutely necessary, we will ask permission before touching your baby.

• If you have a supply of clean masks and wish us to wear one, we will do so upon request.

• We do not ever go to work sick. We are checking our temperatures daily, and do not enter a home in which people are sick, have traveled overseas, attended a large gathering or been in direct contact with anyone who is sick or showing signs of any illness.

• We are practicing social distancing where possible.

• We disinfect our photography equipment after each session.

Above all, we are committed to the continuation of bringing your family hope and excitement, with each new arrival in your growing family!
