What is a Postpartum doula ?
A postpartum doula is there to help and support the new mother and family in those first days and weeks after a new baby arrives. Services include, but are not limited to, help with self-care, recovery, postpartum comfort measures, infant care, parenting information and assistance with learning to feed and take care of your baby, as well as other practical services. This allows the mother and family to rest and recover, as well as giving that all important time to get to know their new baby. These services may last anywhere from a few weeks to a few months. Postpartum doulas may assist during the day or night as they help the family transition into life with an infant.
