You’ve spent months planning for your ideal birth, and now you are home with your new baby. What’s next?

Many parents find themselves in a newborn fog the first month following delivery. As the days blend together you may find yourself feeling sleep deprived, unsure of what this new routine looks like, struggling to balance family needs and self-care. These obligations make transitioning, bonding, & facilitating successful routines difficult.

Our doulas work in concert with partners to anticipate your needs and highlight their strengths as you establish your "new normal."

What does a postpartum doula do?

• Supports all methods of infant feeding.
• Help discover your own unique parenting style in confidence.
• Soothing techniques
• Nourish your family, meet nutritional goals, and care for yourself with an in-depth postpartum meal plan and assistance in meal/snack preparation, accommodating all food preferences/allergies.
• Bond with your newborn while your doula provides light housekeeping, or let us care for baby as you clean to your specifications.
• Take the stress out of doctor appointments and grocery adventures, our doulas run errands with and for you.
• Our doulas are experts at helping families establish routines that support their lifestyle and goals.
• Take time for you - shower, eat a warm meal, or take a nap while your doula cares for your newborn.

“[Our doula] was a godsend. She came during a desperate time when my husband and I needed sleep and relief. Not only were we able to get a full night's rest but she provided guidance, encouragement, and comfort during an overnight shift and we look forward to continuing seeking her help and guidance as we navigate the postpartum period.” ~ Molly, Boise
