Postpartum Doula

The adjustment to having a new member can be challenging for many families. An experienced postpartum doula can provide you with support, an extra pair of hands, and basic breastfeeding and baby care tips. I might help with cleaning and grocery shopping, play with your older children, or hold the baby while you take that longed-for shower or nap: whatever would be most helpful to you.

While any family benefits from having a postpartum doula, some situations especially call for doula support, such as single parents, newborn twins or following a difficult birth, including a Cesarean. Having enough support and "me time" is also key in preventing or managing postpartum depression.

Overnights are available at $200 for an 8-hour shift or $250 for a 10-hour shift.
