The Value of Postpartum Doula Support

"Shortly after giving birth, a mother goes through a myriad of physical, hormonal, social and psychological changes, all of which are exacerbated by sleep deprivation and the many challenges of learning to care for her newborn while simultaneously trying to recover from labor and delivery. The postpartum period is a crucial time for a mother to accept all the help and support that she can get; however, most expecting mothers don't realize how demanding caring for a newborn can be." . . .

Testimonials

"Cindy is truly such an amazing person and helped our family so much after we had our third baby. She nurtured our family in so many ways! From day one, she jumped right in and did all the meal planning, grocery shopping and cooked up a storm in the kitchen to provide fresh food that would nourish my family. She went above and beyond by spoiling me not only with meals, but healthy snacks, lactation cookies, fresh juices and so much more! She also anticipated my needs by making sure I was drinking enough water and brought me a weighted bean pillow she heated for the after birth pains. She lovingly watched the siblings and spent quality time with them, allowing me to rest, shower and bond with my newborn. She also had such wonderful tips for breastfeeding to alleviate soreness and helped that process go smoother. Not only did she spoil me but also my baby by giving her a French bath which my baby absolutely loved! I would highly recommend her to anyone I know!"
