In-Home
Postpartum Doula Support

In-home postpartum doula packages provide ongoing physical and emotional support needed as you bond with your baby and let your body restore after delivery. Prenatal planning sessions are included. Each mother’s needs may vary and packages can be customized to ensure you get the support that you most need. I’d love to bring you a warm cup of healing bone broth or tea, hold your baby while you nap or shower,  listen as you process a range of emotions, answer breastfeeding questions, just to name a few things. From nutritional guidance and lactation support, to physical and emotional care and regaining movement after recovery, all can be catered to your needs within the postpartum doula packages. Support during this time is critical for mental health and physical recovery. Don’t mother alone! Contact me for a complimentary exploration meeting.

As an IBCLC, I will come to your home and provide the education and support you need to enjoy your breastfeeding journey without pain and troubleshoot if you’re having difficulties. An Initial consultation includes up to 1.5 hours of in-home support and up to 7 days ongoing support via text\email. Follow up consultations can be booked as needed. Prenatal class or in-home consultations are also available to set you up for Breastfeeding success once your baby arrives.

Postpartum
Doula

Full service physical and emotional support tailored to your needs postpartum. Book a one time session, 6 or 12 week package, or contact me to book a custom package of sessions. I believe the wisdom that says when a mother has a period of recovery, where she is nourished and supported, not burdened by household duties, and given time to retreat and heal while experiencing a peaceful bonding period, then she can emerge calm, centered and ready to fully embrace her role as a mother. Whether you need a nourishing meal, support breastfeeding, a healing bath or shower, a much needed nap, a listening ear, or all of the above, I can help give you the support you need in the first weeks after your baby is born so you can adjust to motherhood in a calm and supported way.

Class Process your Birth Story

If you had a challenging labor or it didn’t unfold as you planned or dreamed, this can lead to feelings of unresolved sadness, grief, and disconnect. Our bodies store emotion, and unresolved difficult emotions can manifest into physical and emotional aches and pains. Processing our emotions can release this stored tension. This is a space to connect and listen, voice your emotions, hold space and heal. It is not a time to blame or judge. Thru speaking your story, listening to others, and ending with a time of movement and breath work, we will begin to help move your emotions thru your body. If you feel you would rather not speak in a group, please contact me and we can do a private session.
