The mother/baby rooming in a Psychiatric unit is an alternative to protect the bond and maintain the parental care. This study aimed to know the professionals positioning, suggestions and needs in the face of a mother-baby rooming implementation. It is a qualitative research with 28 professionals from the health team of a psychiatric unit located in a public general hospital. Participants answered an instrument with closed and open questions. The results showed sensitivity, empathy, and motivation of professionals to contribute to the effectiveness of the project. To do so, they pointed out the need for changes in the physical structure, the unit management, and the team training. The participants consider that the implementation can help the mother’s recovery and avoid compromising her bond with the baby. However, they suggest the systematization in the intermittent mode. Thus, the results/suggestions of the team constitute subsidies for the coming stages of the implantation of the accommodation.
