Congratulations on your new bundle of joy!
One baby has a tendency to dramatically affect the lives of new parents, but what about two or three babies! A postpartum doula is a neutral third party, non-judgemental woman caregiver, with a quiet presence in your home. Postpartum doulas understand that parents, new and experienced, need time to adjust to their additional responsibilities.
Childbirth classes may prepare you for the miracle of birth, but not always the reality of life. Parenthood is a major life transition and the adjustment period feels less overwhelming when doulas are available to address your questions and concerns. It is for this reason that new families value the help a postpartum doula offers.
Postpartum doulas can give parents much needed information and support during this tender transition into parenthood. Do you have questions or concerns about breastfeeding? ... or sibling adjustment?... or infant care?... or bonding with your baby?... or you just need a break to take a nap or shower? If so, contact me.
