Doula

       

The Greek word doula means woman caregiver. A doula is a trained professional who provides emotional, practical and informational support to families during the transition into parenthood.

​

While some doulas support families during pregnancy and birth, a postpartum doula focuses on the weeks and months after a baby arrives — a time when support can make an enormous difference to a family's wellbeing.

​

The early days with a new baby can be joyful, but they can also be exhausting and overwhelming. A postpartum doula is there to nurture the whole family while parents adjust to life with their newborn.

​

As a postpartum doula, I support families in their own homes, helping parents rest, recover and gain confidence with their new baby.
