Postpartum Support
What is a postpartum doula?
A postpartum doula bridges the gap in postpartum care.
We come with resources, support, and guidance during the transition into parenthood, from the first few weeks to a few months postpartum. Postpartum doulas provide unbiased, evidence-based information and create a safe space for you to feel comfortable and cared for.
You may receive assistance with newborn care, light household tidying, food preparation, lactation, laundry, etc. Postpartum doulas provide physical and emotional support during the often overlooked "fourth trimester."
