Postpartum DOULAS
We were both trained through DONA International and we offer combined experience, training, techniques, skills, knowledge, wisdom, availability, and love to those we support.
What we do:
P- prepare parents
A- assess goals & needs
N- nurture mothers
D- during
A- adjustment time with newborn
Supporting Families from Birth through 3 months of age
What we don't do:
We don't babysit. We can assist with care while the parent(s) are at home and we can refer to childcare services when you are ready to utilize these.
We don't transport families; we can accompany you to a healthcare appointment but we do not provide transportation.
We are not housekeepers. We can assist with chores & tidying to lighten the burden during these first weeks, but if you're looking for deep cleaning services, we would refer to a cleaning service.
