Empower.
Guidance.
There is a lot to learn when a newborn arrives. You may feel like you have absolutely no idea what you are doing - and that’s okay! As your postpartum doula, I am here to help guide you along. I’ll work with you to develop your confidence in your abilities as new parents, and before you know it you’ll be feeling like pros!
Reassurance.
Is there anything better than being told that you are doing an excellent job? As new parents, you’ll be bombarded with conflicting information. Sometimes it can feel like you’re always doing the wrong thing. I’m here to tell you that you are PHENOMENAL each and every time I see you. You will be the best new parents and I will be your biggest cheerleader.
Boundaries.
The arrival of a new baby can bring about many visitors and check-ins. While the support from family and friends is vital, sometimes it can be a bit overwhelming. You know your needs and your family best. Setting boundaries is always helpful, but it can be a little tricky to put it into practice. As your postpartum doula, I’m here to help and to keep what is most important to you at the forefront.
Communication.
Saying what you need and when you need it can be challenging, especially with the exhaustion that comes along with a newborn. I’ll be here to help you communicate your needs - I’ll look for your cues and I’ll always be sure to ask you what you want/need. I’ll encourage you to advocate for yourself, your little one, and your entire family. The best part? You’re not alone! I’ll be there to help you every step of the way until you feel totally comfortable and empowered.
