I can...

• spend time teaching you new parent skills
• support breastfeeding, bottle feeding, infant nutrition

• talk through tough family dynamics 
• support your mental health and recovery!
• If you want to set yourself up for success with breastfeeding please consider my in-home postpartum lactation support in addition or in place of traditional postpartum doula support

​
You can...

• spend time talking about your birth experience
• have me help you write your birth experience​
• take a nap
• take a shower
• get feeding support
• cook or have me cook for you
• run errands
• go on a date with your partner
• tidy your house
• ask me to help facilitate a healthy you post-birth :) 

A typical session looks like...

Daytime - 4hrs (usually in afternoon/evening)

• Your partner can take a nap/shower/eat/prep food/chores
• I arrive and observe/support a feed
• When done, you go to nap/shower/eat while I care for baby
• Maybe we learn a new skill like baby wearing, review infant behaviors and cues, discuss strollers and activities with baby, teach grandma (other support folks) up to date infant care practices, etc
• When baby is ready to eat again, I will wake you
• I will support/observe another feed and leave you in a good place :)

Overnight - 8hrs (usually 11p-7a)

• Partner goes to bed
• Chat for a bit and get updated on things
• Observe/support a feed 
• While you feed, I make sure your snack/water/tools/etc are all set up for easy access overnight
• When done I'll take babe and you can get ready for bed
• You go to sleep while babe and I rest in the other room or babe stays with you and I rest close by so I can hear them if they wake
• When babe is ready to eat again, I will wake you and we begin again
• My goal is to maximize your sleep. The less you have to do to feed/comfort your babe at night, the more rest you will get. You should only have to sleep, care for your body, and feed your baby. I will do the rest! 

*I highly recommend an overnight visit on the 1st or 2nd night and using a good chunk of your hours in the first 2 weeks. Based on other families experiences this is most beneficial. 

*ALL hours need to be completed by 6 weeks postpartum. ​
