Postpartum Doula Services
Professional services tailored to the needs of each postpartum mother, baby and family. Offering overnight (usually 9-13 hours) and daytime services (4-8 hours) that start at $60/hour. My goal is to help help families feel confident in their parenting roles, and allow new parents time to rest and focus on their baby and help incorporate an older child, if needed, into the new family dynamic. I provide information and assistance with breastfeeding, infant feeding, physical recovery, and emotional well-being of mom.
