I am currently studying child development as part of a child psychotherapy and counselling MSc.
In order to fulfil one of the requirements of the course, I'm trying to find someone who is currently pregnant (preferably due to give birth within the next month or so) and would allow me to observe their baby for an hour a week, in their own home, for about a year, beginning when the baby is 7-10 days old. This is so we can learn by direct observation, rather than solely through books.
I'm afraid I can't offer anything in return other than my gratitude as we're not allowed to financially compensate the mother, or to help out with the baby as it would compromise the observation. I am female, currently work with children, am DBS checked and can provide any further information you may require.
I don't want to post my exact location, but to save wasting people's time you would need to be in or very near SW London. If you might be interested in this, please do get in touch via PM.
Thank you!
