A Postpartum Doula supports you and your family as you transition to being home with your newborn. 

As your postpartum doula, I will serve as compassionate and knowledgeable support to you and your family after your birth. As you settle at home with your newborn, I can help you process your birth experience, and support you both emotionally and physically as you grow into parenthood.

Birth doesn’t end in the birth room. The fourth trimester is a time for bonding and recovery. During this time, it is important that the birthing person feels supported as they recover from birth. As a DONA-certified postpartum doula, I am here to help you and your family feel more at ease with your newborn. I am also here to help as you navigate the first weeks of parenting.

Postpartum Doula Support

During the fourth trimester

• I will come to your home and offer guidance, resources, and support for your adjusting family
• Answer questions and reassure you during these early days of parenting
• Help you learn your baby’s language
• Provide tips for diapering
• Offer nursing/bottle feeding support
• Help set up an efficient environment that works well for your home
• Help maintain the household so you can sit and bond with your baby
• Listen. You may be given a lot of advice from people. I prefer to give options, not advice

• My goal is to support you while you learn to trust your own instincts as a new parent and find what works for you and your baby.
