Postpartum

Let us become your village, supporting you and your family every step of your postpartum journey.

The Process

During a typical 3-hour visit, your doula will:

  • Watch you feed your baby if you are breastfeeding / bodyfeeding and see if we can give any tips for a better latch

  • Take your baby to play with them and put them down for a nap so you can rest, get yourself some food, and shower

  • Tidy the house while baby is napping

  • When your baby is cueing they are hungry, we will bring them to you or feed them with a bottle, whichever you prefer

A non-exhaustive list of services we can provide as your doulas:

  • Process how your birth went and how recovery is going

  • Check in when we see signs of postpartum depression and anxiety in either parent

  • Assist with breastfeeding / bodyfeeding by offering advice for an improved latch, demonstrating different ways to hold your baby while feeding, and providing information on milk storage

  • Hold, soothe, and watch over your baby while you get some alone time to sleep, shower, etc.

  • Assist with keeping the house clean by doing light housework – tidying, laundry and doing dishes

  • Meal prep by chopping vegetables or baking muffins

  • Keep you company when your partner goes back to work

  • Accompany you on walks, trips to the doctor, or errands if you are nervous about making these trips alone with the baby

  • Watch and play with your older children

  • Help with bedtime and sleep support

  • Make healthy baby food

  • Anything else you can think of that you need help with!
