Postpartum doulas support women and families through the transformation that a new baby brings to a family.
The use of a postpartum doula provides many benefits:
- Easier transition into parenthood
- Greater breastfeeding success
- More self-confidence in parenting skills
- Less postpartum depression
My postpartum doula services include routine newborn care and guidance, education of the mother in bathing, cord care, diapering, calming techniques, and newborn nutrition and development, breastfeeding assistance. Additionally I help with household tasks including laundry, light housekeeping, grocery shopping, and meal preparation, care of older siblings, accompanying mother and baby to pediatrician appointments, running errands.
Flexibility is provided in 16 hour packages coordinated around your schedule.
