In-Home Postpartum Doula Support

CURRENT AVAILABILITY: DAYTIME SUPPORT FOR APRIL 2025 & BEYOND

Families often spend a lot of time preparing for childbirth,

but what about the fourth trimester and beyond?

The fourth trimester is the first three months after your baby is born, also known as the postpartum and/or newborn stage. This period (and beyond) can be a big time of transition and adjustment.

As a postpartum doula, I’m committed to supporting families through this time, bringing elements of ease, honoring and recognition, as well as reminders that you are truly the best parent for your baby.

Below are some of the things you can expect during our time together:

  • Providing space for vulnerability. This can include talking about your pregnancy and birth experiences, as well as current challenges and joys.

  • Helping take care of YOU. Your baby is getting showered with love , but have you been able to find time for an everything shower? I’m able to hold your baby or wear them in a wrap to offer time for parent needs like sleep, showers, and other forms of self care.

  • Attunement to your mental health. I will keep an eye and ear out for any possible need for mental health resources and support.

  • Newborn care. I’m happy to provide support and information surrounding bathing, trimming nails, tummy time, wake windows, soothing, baby communication, + more.

  • Feeding baby support. As a Certificated Lactation Educator & Counselor (CLEC), I can assist you with feeding your baby in whatever way is most supportive for you and your family. The spectrum of baby feeding includes nursing, pumping, bottle and/or formula feeding, using an SNS system, etc.

  • General support. This can look like food prep, cooking nourishing meals, light tidying of the home such as dishes, vacuuming, baby laundry, giving love to your fur-st and plant babies, etc.

WHAT I DO

Nighttime Shifts:

Currently unavailable

Example of a typical nightime shift

  • 10-1030p: Check in with family about physical and emotional needs, plus resource support.

  • 1030p-12a: I will focus on quieter tasks like laundry, cooking & dishes, whatever feels best for you!

  • 12-6a: I’ll rest next to your baby in an agreed upon space and bring them to you as needed if you’re nursing, help with pumping if desired, and tend to your little one by offering them a bottle, burping them, changing their diaper and helping them back to sleep.

    This can all be edited and changed to suit your family’s needs and preferences!
