Postpartum Recovery Support
Let’s turn that ‘what did I get myself into?’ into ‘I’ve got this.’
Here’s why a postpartum doula is a game changer:
Sleep? Yes, Please: "Sleep when the baby sleeps?" Yeah, we know, that’s easier said than done. But with a postpartum doula, it's possible! You catch those precious Zzz’s while we watch your little one. We’ll even tidy up a bit—think bottle-washing, nursery pick-ups, and making your space feel a little less like a baby tornado hit it. Sweet dreams, mama!
Feed the Baby, Feed Yourself: Breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, or “How do I make this pump work again?”—we’ve got you covered. And while we’re at it, we’ll ensure you’re eating something better than a “girl dinner” of crackers and string cheese—or your toddler’s leftover goldfish. You deserve a proper meal, mama!
Cry It Out (You, Not Just Baby): Tears, hormones, and those “Is this my life now?” moments—been there, done that. We’re here to hand you tissues, snacks, and zero judgment.
No More Midnight Googling: Wondering if that weird baby noise is normal? Or why do your boobs feel like rocks? Save yourself the 3 a.m. panic scroll—we’ve got real answers on demand.
Partners Love Us Too: Teaching swaddle techniques, baby care basics, and boosting confidence? We’ve got your partner’s back too—parenting’s a team effort, and we’re the coach.
Postpartum TLC: We will never judge you for not washing your hair in a week... or two. We’ll help you squeeze in a shower, make sure you can drink your coffee or tea while it's actually hot, and even help you swap out that Adam Sandler look for something that boosts your confidence (we get it, it’s comfy, but you deserve to feel good too). We’ve got your back, mama!
Every mom deserves someone in her corner who truly gets it. Let’s do this together!
