POSTPARTUM DOULA

Everyone focuses so much on birth in our culture: what’s going to happen, how it will feel, and more. But we often forget how important what happens after the baby is actually born can be. There is so much attention on the cute little baby that the mother and her needs can get lost in the shuffle. That’s exactly what I hope to prevent in my work as a postpartum doula.

My passion for postpartum comes out of my own experiences. I had a very traumatic first birth and it affected my mothering. I gave up quickly on breastfeeding and felt disconnected from my partner. I had a much better and more supported experience with my second son and that’s what I hope to give to my clients. It’s my desire to help you have a calm, happy postpartum experience so you can feel confident as a new mother.

As a postpartum doula, I “mother the mother.” This includes all kinds of support and duties, including but not limited to:
  • light housekeeping
  • cooking
  • breastfeeding/formula feeding support 
  • infant care
  • childcare for older sibling

Through it all, I emotionally and mentally support you and your goals as a new mom, providing that extra hand so you are more relaxed.

As a postpartum doula, I do not diagnose or treat any medical problems with you or your baby.
Whenever and however you intend to give birth, your experience will impact your emotions, your mind, your body and your spirit for the rest of your life.
- Ina May Gaskin
