Postnatal support often looks different for everyone, it is something that can change from one week to the next depending on you and your baby. As a postnatal doula I take time to get to know you, your preferences and gently help you navigate the journey of parenthood – whether this may be your first baby or sixth baby, bringing a baby Earthside is a huge transition.
Placing the mother/birthing person at the centre to ensure that they are nourished, as rested as possible and supported. I am here to hold space for you and listen to your experiences, nurture you and empower you during this postpartum time.
The range of support may include:
Listening to whatever is on your mind, including talking about the birth experience
Shopping, preparing or cooking nourishing meals, light housework, organising, laundry etc.
Caring for the new baby so that you are able to rest, sleep, bath or take a moment for yourself.
Caring for pets.
Support with the adjustment with older siblings, caring for baby to enable time for you to spend with older siblings.
Infant feeding support, and signposting to specialists if further support may be required.
I recommend that postnatal support sessions are booked as 3-5 hour blocks.
