WahakuraSUDI Prevention Tool
WahakuraA Wahakura is a kaupapa Māori safe
sleeping space.
‘Waha’ means to carry and ‘kura’ refersto the treasure that is your precious
pēpi.
Wahakura WānangaA Wahakura is a cultural response to promote positive and healthy development of our pēpi and whānau; it encourages breast feeding; facilitates bonding between māmā, pāpā and pēpi; opens the way for a wider conversation with whānau about safe sleeping. The skills learnt can be passed on inter-generationally & whānau create their own taonga.
Please remember that there is tikanga around harvesting harakeke, for example menstruating and hapu māmā are recommended not the harvest due to there state of tapu. Wāhine who are pregnant or menstruating should have someone harvest for them.
Wahakura WānangaOur wānanga are open to all whānau that wish to weave a taonga for their pēpi. You need no experience, we have our weaving Kaiako Taua Daph and her support weavers to walk alongside your wahakura journey.
We only ask that you commit to the 2 full days, as it takes the whole wānanga to weave a taonga that is safe for pēpi.
Please remember that your wahakura will take about 6 weeks to dry prior to pēpi being able to use the wahakura.

Breastfeeding Peer Counsellor Programme
What is a Breastfeeding Peer Counsellor?
MoH:Mother-to-mother peer support
A woman who has successfully breastfed is a valuable asset to her community, and often highly motivated to help and support other mothers.
The Breastfeeding Peer Counsellor Programme is a La Leche League initiative that builds on this community capacity to provide cost-effective breastfeeding
peer support.
The programme provides women from target populations with training and resources to offer skilled and knowledgeable help to other mothers (their
peers).
Significant International Evidence for BPCAt 12 weeks postpartum, women with a peer counselor had odds of providing any amount of breast milk 181% greater than women without a peer counselor (odds ratio, 2.81 [95% confidence interval, 1.11-7.14]; P = .01). The Effect of Peer Counselors on Breastfeeding Rates in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit:Results of a Randomized Controlled Trial, JAMA Paediatrics 2006
Specific components of a large PC programme appeared to have an appreciable impact on breast-feeding outcomes. In-person contacts were essential to improving breast-feeding outcomes, but defining optimal programme components is complex. Public Health Nutrition, 2015
The overwhelming majority of the evidence from randomized, controlled trials evaluating breastfeeding PC indicates that peer counselors effectively improve rates of breastfeeding initiation, duration and exclusivity. Journal of Human Lactation 2010
Community-based peer support for mothers is effective in increasing the duration of exclusive breastfeeding, particularly for infants aged 3–6 months in low- and middle-income countries. Such support also encourages mothers to initiate breastfeeding early and prevents newborn prelacteal feeding.

Tamariki Ora Well Child Service
A kaupapa response to well child services
Tamariki Ora Well Child
Tamariki Ora Well Child service provides home-based Well Child checks to whānau with pēpi and tamariki aged 0-5 years old.
Registered nurses provide information and support around breastfeeding, smoking, safety, first food, sleep issues, child development, immunisation, oral health and other parenting issues. A time to talk about any concerns whānau might have about pēpi.
What makes our Tamariki Ora Well Child Service special within our community?
As a kaupapa māori organisation we work in a way that is MANA enhancing for the whānau, instead of deficit driven – we strive to support wellness and connection to Te Ao Māori.
Valuing the experiences of the whānau to better negociate any barriers along their journey to wellness. Utilising the other services within Te Puawaitanga and the community to support and nuture a pathway to well, health, connected communities.
MANA - is a supernatural force in a person, place or object. Mana goes hand in hand with tapu, one affecting the other. The more prestigious the event, person or object, the more
it is surrounded by tapu and mana. Mana is the enduring, indestructible power of the atua and is inherited at birth.
Whats new at Te Puawaitanga ki Ōtautahi Trust?
Whānau Whakapuawai – Kaupapa Māori Maternal Mental Health Program
Te Puawaitanga has been awarded the Te Ao Auahatanga Hauora Māori: Māori Health Innovation Fund 2020-2023 to develop and implement a
kaupapa māori response to maternal mental well-being for māmā and her whānau living in Canterbury during the first 1000 days from birth of a pēpi.
This is to address the significant gaps in services for Māori whānau dealing with maternal mental health issues while hapū and parenting. This includes post traumatic stress, colonisation, AOD, antenal and postnatal depression.
Whānau will be supported to detemine their own goals and activities within the initiative, and they will determine what mental wellbeing looks like for
them.
