A Postpartum Doula may also provide support for older siblings as they adjust to life with a little one. She may attend to simple household tasks such as tidying up the nursery, stocking diapers, preparing bottles, providing a comfortable environment, and preparing light meals to promote nutrition for the new mother. The Postpartum Doula will provide a wealth of resources for support for new moms in the community. She also loves to capture precious new moments at home as a new family through photography to give to the family!
Many expectant families anticipate the help of a mother or mother-in-law or other family members, which is very much encouraged. While family can provide wonderful help, they may not always be trained in or know how to offer the best objective support to a new mom and baby. We encourage you to get the most support you can throughout this exciting and overwhelming time!
Traditionally, the postpartum period was a "nesting period", when a new mother was attended to and taken care of by other experienced mothers, so that the new mom could focus on the vital tasks of postpartum recovery, emotional adjustment, and getting to know her precious little one.
Today few families have such support, and frequently become overwhelmed by the immense adjustment to parenthood. Postpartum Doulas gently guide and support families through this transition so that they may get off to the best start with their new baby.
Overnight hours are also available, but book fast. Feel free to call for a prenatal consultation, or call after baby arrives!
We look forward to working with you and loving on your new little one!
" The most difficult part of birth is the first year after it. It is the year of travail ~ when the soul of a woman must birth the mother inside her. The emotional labor pains of becoming a mother are far greater than the physical pangs of birth; these are the growing surges of your heart as it pushes out selfishness and fear and makes room for sacrafice and love.It is a private and silent birth of the soul, but it is no less holy than the event of childbirth, perhaps it is even more sacred."
