The Perfect Nurse

Most people remember with fondness the pleasure and comforts provided by mums when we were sick as children. Trying to rekindle some of those little kindnesses is a guaranteed way of ensuring your partner appreciates you.

• Make sure there are clean fresh sheets on the bed 
• Make a hot water bottle 
• Light an aromatherapy candle 
• Make a little bedside table kit – medicines, drink, mags, gentle lamp 
• Make some tempting nibbles – cut things small (reminds us of being pampered as a child) and display carefully 
• Put on some gentle music 
• Leave alone to get some peace and quiet but pop back at regular intervals to see if all is well 
• Offer to go and get things if needed
