A postpartum doula might be right for you if you want extra support as you recover, adjust, and settle into life with your baby. Whether you need guidance with feeding, emotional support, help with newborn care, or just another person in your village, a doula provides non-judgmental, personalized care. Some families plan for a doula in pregnancy, while others realize after birth that they could use an extra set of hands and a reassuring presence. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or just want more support, a postpartum doula can help make this transition feel calmer and more manageable.

You can hire a postpartum doula anytime through your baby’s first 12 weeks, also known as the fourth trimester. Some parents reach out during pregnancy, while others do so after baby arrives.

No, my role is to support the whole family, not just the baby. I can help with newborn care, offer tips for soothing, and give you time to rest while I hold or care for your baby, but I do not replace a parent or caregiver.

My services focus on planning for and supporting you during the postpartum period. While I don’t provide birth support, I’d be happy to help you find a birth doula who can guide you through pregnancy and delivery.

No, I am a non-medical professional and do not diagnose or treat medical conditions. However, I am trained to recognize common postpartum concerns, such as perinatal mood disorders, and can refer you to trusted providers who align with your needs and values.

Yes! While I am not a lactation consultant, I am trained in basic breastfeeding support. I can help with positioning, latch techniques, and general feeding concerns, and if more specialized support is needed, I can refer you to a lactation professional who fits your needs.

That’s completely normal! We can start with an estimate based on what feels right, and adjust as you get a better sense of your needs after baby arrives.

Every session is tailored to your needs that day. Some days, that might mean hands-on help with newborn care, feeding support, or meal prep while you rest. Other times, it could be troubleshooting sleep challenges or simply holding space for you while you process the ups and downs of postpartum. Whether you need practical help or just someone to remind you that you’re doing an incredible job, I’m there to support you in whatever way feels right.

Absolutely! My role is to support the whole family. I can help partners feel more confident in newborn care and recovery support, and I’m happy to work alongside any family members involved in your postpartum experience.

Postpartum can be a rollercoaster, and having someone to talk to can make a huge difference. I provide a judgment-free space to process your birth, navigate new emotions, and adjust to your changing identity as a parent. If deeper mental health support is needed, I can connect you with trusted professionals.

My focus is on supporting your recovery and transition into parenthood, which includes light household tasks to help create a calm and functional space. I can assist with things like baby laundry, tidying baby areas, meal prep, and dishes—but I do not provide deep cleaning or regular housekeeping services. I’m also happy to help brainstorm ways to make household tasks more manageable during this season.
