Benefits of a postpartum doula:
~Decreased rate of severe postpartum depression
~Easier transition into the new role of parenthood
~Easier sibling transitions
~Increased feelings of comfort and confidence
The postpartum transition is not only a miraculous time of getting to know each other and falling in love, it can also be a challenging time filled with many emotions. As your postpartum doula I can help ease this transition into parenthood by offering not only logistical household support but emotional, and informational support as well. I will help you to discover your own instincts and knowledge about parenthood, and help you to become confident in your parenting abilities with out judgment.
