Postpartum Support
-
Caring for Baby
Bottle feeding and burping baby, and/or bringing baby to mom to breastfeed as needed. Soothing, rocking, and humming baby to sleep. Changing and bathing baby as needed.
-
Caring for Mom
Holding space for mom to share her birth and postpartum experiences. Offering therapeutic treatments like herbal sitz baths and massages. Ensuring mom is well hydrated and fed. Helping out with baby as needed so that mama can shower and practice self care.
-
Caring for the Space
Meal prep, cleaning the home, doing laundry, washing dishes and bottles, going on grocery runs, restocking baby supplies as needed — anything that would facilitate the feeling of having “the village” in this with you. This could also include pet and/or sibling care.
The transition to parenthood was not meant to be undertaken alone. It’s an honor to support parents as they step into this incredibly challenging and rewarding chapter.
We will work together to customize a postpartum service package and contract that suits your support needs. Folks who invested in birth doula support with me will receive 15% off their postpartum care costs. Night support is available upon request.
