Postpartum Doula Services

It can be hard to figure out what life looks like after baby arrives.  Maybe you had a hard labor and delivery and need extra recovery time, maybe your partner needs to go back to work earlier than expected, maybe you don’t live close to family, maybe you have other children at home.  Whatever the case may be I’m there for you to support you emotionally and physically during your postpartum journey.  It can be challenging to care for yourself and your newborn and that’s where I come in.  I will be with you to assist in helping baby to have a healthy and productive nursing relationship with you, help running small errands to pick up diapers, wipes, or a few staple groceries or take out, help with possibly a much needed nap for you, for baby or both.  While I’m with you I will pick up where needed around the house, offer support in most any way you are needing it and make sure you are well cared for.  Mom’s often get left out after baby arrives but I’m here to care for you.  Please reach out to find out more information on postpartum doula services I offer.
