Postpartum Doula Support
What is the role of a Postpartum Doula?
During the time a Doula is working with a postpartum family, they develop a relationship in which the family feels comfortable asking questions, expressing fears and concerns. They become connected to their doula. A doula becomes available at any time for the family via text, call and email support throughout their time together, on top of home visits.
Doulas provide endless support through knowledge, providing evidence based information and resources on infant feeding, parent self care, newborn care basics, Skin-to-skin bonding, postpartum mood disorder watch, breastfeeding education and so much more. They provide you with all the resources, groups and supports you have within your community and ones available from the comfort of your home. A Doula provides emotional well-being support, someone to talk to and ask questions without judgement. And they can provide physical comfort measures throughout the postpartum period.
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.
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. Your Doula is your “go to”, your extra support, and your educated thinking in times when your exhaustion gets the best of you.
A doula will never provide medical advice or preform medical procedures, but will educate you with evidence based information to help you make informed decision.
