I especially love to cater to mothers and make them feel very well taken care of, listened to, pampered, and nourished to help them with their physical and emotional recovery and healing.
The postnatal period can be a difficult adjustment emotionally. I sit and listen to how you are feeling and hold space for you to process your emotions. This includes a debriefing of your birthing experience.
I am here for you! My goal is to take care of you and the practical things so you can rest, recover and bond with your precious bundle of joy!

Every mother deserves support during the postnatal period. I offer a sliding scale fee based on your income and potentially through bartering services. Ask me how!
