what to expect from postpartum care
Giving birth is one of the most demanding things for a woman's body. Afterwards rest and nutrition are required for healing, while also caring for the baby you just carried. Having a postpartum doula is having peace of mind to focus on your recovery by allowing someone in your home to tend to light cleaning, providing nutritious meals, and confident reassurance.
Once a woman gives birth, the fourth trimester begins and can last for a lifetime. Each birth is a new chapter, and chance to receive support in your home from a caring presence. My services can extend beyond what one may consider the traditional postpartum period, as I posses skills in building a new home based around peaceful integration of a new baby, or adding more children. In addition, I will remain a sounding board and support person for you and your family for up to one year after the birth of your child, to remain a consistent presence during all the ups and downs of this chapter.
