Postpartum Doula Support

What is a postpartum doula? A postpartum doula is a professional support person who provides support to the birth giver and their family after birth to help achieve a safe and satisfying postpartum experience and transition to parenthood.

A postpartum doula draws from professional training, knowledge and experience to provide emotional support and evidence-based information for maternal and newborn care in the first few days, weeks, and months after birth. The doula can provide reassurance, perspective, and make suggestions to you and your partner.

A Postpartum Doula works with each family individually to find out their particular needs. Some of the postpartum services that a doula may perform include: (but is not limited to):

· Breastfeeding support

· Support with the emotional and physical recovery after birth
