Postpartum Doula
It’s all hands in with a new baby, and postpartum Doulas can also help the days go a little smoother by helping with the baby’s laundry, doing the dishes, allowing for parents to have rest time or preparing simple, nourishing meals for the family. Your Doula will provide informative support in infant feeding, infant care basics, self care, postpartum mood watch, postpartum body changes, skin to skin, community supports and referrals and more!
A new baby means a big transition for everyone, including parents, grandparents and brothers and sisters. Postpartum Doulas understand the needs of everyone, and part of their role is to help the entire family adjust, bond and settle in smoothly.
Doulas DO NOT provide medical advice, procedures, or diagnosis at any time.
