Postpartum Doula Care
The mantra for postpartum recovery is “Do Nothing Extra.” I’m here to help you do nothing extra, as well as offer loving witness, care, and support, as you navigate this precious and very important postpartum moment in time.
Postpartum support can include:
Cooking and meal preparation
Light bodywork, or (for additional hourly fee) full massage/bodywork session
Light housework, cleaning, tidying, laundry
Coaching, emotional and informational support, nonjudgemental listening, time processing birth story and postpartum experiences (or “birth story weaving”)
Sitz bath and herbal tea preparation
Basic breastfeeding support
Creating and/or refreshing “postpartum stations” by the bed, couch, or whichever areas you find yourself most often settled with baby
Grocery shopping & errand running
Tending to baby or siblings while you sleep, shower, or get solo time
Assistance maintaining or developing daily routines
Dog walks, pet care, plant watering
Assembly of baby-related gear, car seat installation, closet/drawer organization
Resource guidance as questions or issues arise
How it works:
Minimum of 3 hours booked per visit (max 6). Use this time for general postpartum support, or include massage/bodywork into your care on any given day.
$40 per hour of doula work, or per 30 minutes of massage/bodywork. Packages available for discounted rates upon request.
Schedule and pay as you go, and/or use prepaid credit interchangeably for services as needed.
*Loved ones can gift you postpartum doula hours! Add it to a shower registry or wish list.
