What recent reviews say

Most mothers praise Ms. Neoh's breastfeeding support and the nannies' warmth, along with convenient proximity to hospitals and meal quality. However, two serious incidents involving rough baby handling and unreported scratches have eroded trust; facility issues (heat, broken fans, short hot water) and repetitive meals also frustrate guests, especially those paying for premium suites.

Recent shift: Two severe safety incidents (unreported baby injury and rough handling) and ongoing facility complaints have tempered otherwise strong sentiment around staff warmth and support.

Praised for
  • supportive, knowledgeable staff (Ms. Neoh, nannies)
  • nutritious, well-balanced meals
  • convenient hospital location
  • CCTV baby monitoring peace of mind
  • professional, caring nanny team
Watch-outs
  • inconsistent nanny care quality; two severe safety concerns reported
  • repetitive meal options despite package promises
  • facility issues: poor ventilation, broken equipment, weak hot water
  • poor communication around baby incidents
  • overpriced for service level, especially premium rooms

Best for: First-time mothers seeking structured postnatal support and breastfeeding guidance.

Codrington Postnatal Retreat

4.9(135)✓ Google-verified

Nearly all mothers report exceptional recovery experiences with professional, caring staff and nutritious fresh-cooked meals prepared daily for postpartum healing. Newborns thrive under dedicated nursing, and the tranquil, low-density single-storey facility with easy parking makes visits stress-free for families. One serious complaint describes unsafe infant feeding practices and inadequate response to safety concerns, including a baby hospitalized at 2 months from chronic overfeeding. While this is a stark outlier among overwhelmingly positive reviews, it signals potential gaps in breastfeeding knowledge and complaint handling. Most families who stay remark they would return.

New mothers recover here with hands-on support from trained nannies who manage night feeds and teach bathing, swaddling, and feeding techniques. The facility serves five daily meals, offers quiet private rooms, and staff know residents by name, creating a calm space to rest after birth. Wifi can be patchy, cleaning happens weekly, and parents must bring their own diapers and formula. The business states it employs KKM-registered doctors and certified confinement nannies. Rooms range from RM9399 to RM11399 for the standard 28-day stay. A few first-time visitors wished for a clearer welcome briefing, but every reviewer praised the food quality and the peace of mind that comes from professional overnight childcare.

Mothers consistently report feeling fully cared for and confident as first-time parents by discharge. Staff-particularly the lactation team (named Charmaine, Elaine, Farah, Dr Grace) and nursery team-teach hands-on skills with patience and follow up responsively after mothers leave. The centre combines hospital-standard baby tracking (feeding and bowel movement records provided to new parents) with practical classes on breastfeeding, baby wear, and postpartum recovery. The environment is clean and quiet, five daily meals arrive on time, and nannies handle night feeds so mothers can rest. Location near Loh Guan Lye Specialist Hospital adds convenience.
