Newborn Care & Nighttime Services

Having a spectacular support system doesn't have to end with the birth of your baby. The transition to parenthood and life with a new infant at home is an adjustment for everyone; the assistance of a postpartum doula during this delicate time allows for a much smoother, gentler and more enjoyable fourth trimester with your new little one! 

​

Your postpartum doula cares for the needs of your infant as well as your postpartum adjustment and that of your partner and other family members - even the family dog! 

​

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some of the areas our clients enjoy assistance with during this special time include:

​

  • Overnight support to allow maximum sleep for the entire family and maintenance of a breastfeeding relationship or bottle feeding schedule. 

  • Light housekeeping and laundry to maintain a sense of order and balance, allowing you and your partner to rest and focus on your little one.

  • Meal planning and preparation and, if necessary, grocery and supply ordering and shopping to shorten the to do list. 

  • Infant care and instruction alongside family to allow a wealth of questions to be answered, with full support and access to resources and materials to allow planning of methods you wish to use in raising your baby.

  • Assistance with babywearing, gear consultations, feeding and more to allow you to explore your preferred options with ease. 

  • Face to face support during a delicate time in your own postpartum recovery.  The perfect time to take a shower, a nap, or rest with your little one in trained, professional hands! 

  • Sibling preparation and care to allow all family members to adjust to the arrival of a new baby.

​

Postpartum doula rates and length of assistance are fully customizable.  Hourly rates are $35.

 "I want to thank the women who came to help me in those first few months; it was a real turning point for me. I was able to see how calm they were, even when M was at his fussiest, and it helped me to change my own attitude. The doula who came that first day made the biggest impact on how I was feeling about being a new parent, and I can never thank her enough! Things are still difficult at times, but I feel so much better equipped to handle it!!
