Postpartum Doula Care

Overnight Care

8 hour overnight shift $45/hr

One thing is true for almost all new parents: They need more sleep! My top priority for overnight care is providing your family with just that.
If you’re breastfeeding, I'll bring the baby to you to nurse, then let you drift off again while I deal with burping, changing, and soothing baby back to sleep.

Daytime Care

4 hour daytime shift $40/hr

I can help your family adjust to life with a newborn with:

• Breastfeeding Help: I offer guidance and support during the critical early days of the breastfeeding relationship, to ensure moms are successful and babies are thriving.

• Newborn Care: I help families learn how to diaper, feed, bathe, and comfort their newest addition; baby-soothing skills often prove invaluable as families adapt!

• Sibling Care: Older children are going through a transition, too. So I provide extra attention, easing their entry into the important role of big sister or brother.

• Postpartum Recovery: I help families navigate the many ups and downs of the first few weeks after the birth of a baby, leading them through physical and emotional recovery.

• Professional Referrals: I make sure families get whatever help they might need, providing referrals to respected local resources such as lactation specialists, parenting classes, pediatricians, and postpartum support groups.

• Light Housekeeping: I offer help with household management – doing laundry, prepping meals, running errands – to lighten new parents’ overwhelm.
