Postpartum Doula: Virtual and In person
With a postpartum doula, you will enjoy,
- Nurturing as new parents
- Education about baby basics and becoming a family
- Assessment of your needs and help you find ways to meet them
- Referrals to other resources as you need them
My goal in these first 3 months after baby is born is to provide you with the care you need to recover from labor, to reduce the baby blues, to make sure you have eaten and had plenty of water, to rest,to walk as appropriate, to get fresh air,to help your children adjust to life with a new baby,to establish your new routines as a family. I am here to listen and support you as you process the hopes, fears, frustrations, and challenges of being a new parent.
Family resilience coaching:
Please schedule a free 30-60 minute family breakthrough session. During this session, we will talk about:
- The challenges you are facing as a family
- The obstacles that have been getting in your way
- Potential next steps to move forward to help you get your needs met
- At the end of the call, if it’s a good fit for both of us, we will talk about options for working together.
My goal is to help you to get to an empowered “yes” or “no” and to help you to get the support you need. If we are not a good fit to work together, I have lots of amazing colleagues and would be happy to provide a referral.
Whenever it’s applicable and possible, please schedule family breakthrough sessions for a time when you and your partner can both attend.
You do not need a partner to participate in my services. However, since the goal is to build family teamwork and reduce chaos for the whole family, it usually works best if we do this meeting together and include all adult decision-makers.
