My desire is to quietly and gently come alongside parents as you welcome your newborn into your families. I can provide emotional support to assist with the transitions of the postpartum period and having a new baby. Encouragement, a listening ear and practical help in your home will be offered. I’ll hold your baby so that you can bathe and/or rest, be a safe person you can share your concerns with and offer informational support - all in a judgment-free loving manner. A comforting meal, changing your sheets and doing some laundry are a few of the ways I can help you. My hope is that the care I give feels much like a professional grandma or Loli.

What a shift looks like depends on what you, the client, desire most that particular day. One day you might want help learning how to wear your baby in a carrier and for me to tidy the kitchen. Another day you might want to take a long shower while I cuddle/feed/care for the baby. Fresh sheets, dishes cleared, lunch cooked, or laundry folded while we visit are all options. My desire is to support you in your roll of mama and create space for you to bond with your baby.
I love Lori! She is such an amazing woman. Lori was a great emotional support during my postpartum. She listened to all of my concerns and made me feel heard and understood. All the questions I had for her, she was able to answer and answer accurately. Lori helped me feel confident about taking care of my newborn. Thank you for everything you had done for our family. You are a true blessing.
