The postpartum period can be overwhelming, emotional, demanding and physically challenging. A postpartum doula is a trained professional who offers hands-on, emotional, and practical support during this tender transition, helping you adjust, recover, and feel confident as a new parent.
Emotional Support
A calm, nurturing presence who listens without judgment. I help you navigate the whirlwind of feelings that arise in the early postpartum period, with compassion and understanding.
Practical Infant Care Support
Expert help with newborn care, including diapering, soothing, feeding routines, and baby sleep. I guide you in breastfeeding or bottle feeding, positioning, latching, pumping, and managing common challenges.
Light Household Help
Support with laundry, tidying, meal prep, and anything else that gives you space to rest and bond with your baby.
Evidence-Based Information
I answer your questions, share trusted resources, and connect you to local specialists when needed — all based on the latest in postpartum and infant care.
Self-Care & Recovery Guidance
