A postpartum doula provides evidence based information and compassionate support around postpartum issues such as maternal recovery, newborn care, breastfeeding/bottle feeding, baby soothing and sleeping, assistance with sibling transition, nursery organization, nutrition, mental and emotional wellness connection with local family resources and more. This level of support takes place within the first three months after bringing home a new baby.
As a postpartum doula, I aid in both the transition into parenthood for parents, and in the transition into personhood for the baby. The level of support offered is specifically tailored to meet the needs of each individual Mama and family. By hiring a postpartum doula, the family can focus on what is most important; bonding with their new baby!
