Postpartum Doula Services
The postpartum period is a time of healing and a time of adjustment. Just as your baby needs to be nurtured, so do you! My job as your postpartum doula is to make sure you are cared for and supported while you adjust to having a new baby in your life.
Services Include
Emotional Support and Resources
The postpartum period is a sensitive time. I am there if you need someone to talk to. I can also provide information and resources to other local professionals so you have all the support you need.
Sibling or Infant Care
Rest and self care is important in the early postpartum period. I can care for your baby while you take some time for yourself. I can also help out with older children and support you through helping them adjust to having a new sibling.
Infant Feeding Support
No matter the feeding method you choose, I am there to support you. I can offer support with breastfeeding, pumping, and/or bottle feeding. I also can offer resources if the help you need is out of my scope of practice.
Newborn Care Guidance
Whether you are a first time parent or an experienced parent, I am there to support and guide you. I want to nurture your confidence in caring for your baby.
Errands or Outings
I can run errands for you or offer support and a helping hand if you want or need to go on outings with your baby. Having the extra support, especially for the first few outings can really help you feel secure in leaving the house with your baby.
House Chores
House chores can pile up when you have a new baby to care for. I can help out with dishes, laundry, or meal preparations as well as other light house chores.
Cost: $40/hour
