Postpartum Doula Services

A postpartum doula is there to help a new family in those first days and weeks after bringing home a new baby. Services include, but are not limited to, help with self-care recovery, postpartum comfort measures, infant care, parenting information and assistance with learning to feed and take care of your baby, as well as other practical services.

Postpartum doula services for a family last anywhere from a few days, up to a few weeks after bringing home a new baby. Postpartum doulas assist during the day, but also during the night to help the family transition more smoothly into the challenges of night time parenting. 

As your postpartum doula, I will provide the following services:

     One prenatal meeting, during which we will discuss and explore your priorities and concerns, and plan how to best work together to meet your needs.
     Education on postpartum issues 
     Guidance with newborn care and feeding 
     Sibling care
     Breastfeeding support and tips 
     Emotional support and nurturing for the new mother 
     Help with postpartum care (ie: preparing sitz baths, foot soaks, belly binding, etc) 
     Healthy and nutritious meals and/or meal planning 
     Very light housekeeping (ie: light laundry and folding, tidying up)
