Postpartum Support

Hours to be set together

Nothing is set in stone

  • Working together prenatally to prepare you for the postpartum time. What you “need” and don’t need! How to structure support! How to set up your home so you and baby have everything you need where you’ll want it! Ensuring partners know where things are so they can support you confidently!

  • Holding space for the experiences of every member of the family unit, birthing person, partners if applicable, other children, pets, etc

  • Nurturing the birthing person. Making sure they are well nourished with food and water, as well as emotional support. I also work to nurture and support the whole family unit, as well as their home.

  • This can come in any number of ways: supporting the feeding of the baby, supporting getting parents fed, tidying the house, doing laundry, taking out the trash, holding the baby so parents have physical freedom, a shower! a nap! protected sleep where you know the baby is taken care of so you can actually drift off to sleep! setting up visitor schedules and meal trains

  • Connecting you to other resources and practicioners. I know when to call the lactation consultant and have a list of referrals. I know when to call the pediatrician! When to reach out for sleep support! I have referrals for pelvic floor physical therapy, postpartum massage etc

Childcare Support Services

  • Often times, I have had the ultimate gift of being asked to stick around with families beyond the initial postpartum time. I really love being able to be with families as they find the level of support they need as parents go back to work and needs change.

  • This requires a conversation and new contract with updated expectations for both sides!

  • I also have started with families beyond the initial postpartum moment! At 3 months, 6 months, and even 18 months. I really love all kids and am so lucky to have supported and gotten to love on so many.

  • Right now, I’m with kids as old as 7 and it is a delight!!!

  • Full childcare coverage and support. Continuation of household care and chores, all baby laundry, baby dishes, baby needs etc

  • I support with feeding and sleep. I love taking babies outside! to the library! the park! I love taking babies to art and swim classes!
