HEARTFELT & HOLISTIC POSTPARTUM DOULA SUPPORT
A gentle start into motherhood
For all mothers during the first weeks after giving birth
Meeting you where you are emotionally & physically. Understanding your needs as a newborn mother and ensuring you get the support and structure your growing family needs.
Hiring a Doula after birth can be a life saver for your mental and physical health for years to come
Early postpartum is not a time for self care. It´s a time to be cared for.
I am there for you and your family when you need me the most. You can expect only the best quality of care - mindful at all times. We'll build a customized care plan based on your unique needs, goals and lifestyle.
I´m here for you whenever and however you need me as you navigate this transition into parenthood.
A Postpartum Doula is like some kind of Mary Poppins.
But for moms.
As a Doula, I can take a few things off your plate so you can sink in a freshly made bed, focus on bonding with your new baby, recovery and catching up on sleep.
I´ll take care of your laundry, make sure your household is running smoothly and older kids are well taken care of.
When you wake up from your well deserved nap and come out of your shower, your home is calm and tidy and you know someone is making cappuccino in the kitchen.
It´s normal to feel overwhelmed. That´s when I come in.
A HUGE PART OF MY WORK IS TO MAKE SURE THE MOTHER IS OK EMOTIONALLY AS WELL.
Here´s a few of the things I can do for you as a postpartum Doula
Newborn care
Emotional support, listening to you, helping you understand and process your birth story
Light housekeeping & laundry
Watching older siblings
Breastfeeding/Bottlefeeding support
Baby sleep coaching
Meal prep, nourishing snacks and drinks
Manage setting boundaries with postpartum visitors
Detailed encouragement of your partner so he/she can adjust and support you as well
Navigating baby blues and possible birth-related anxiety and mood disorders
Supporting your physical recovery especially after a cesarean birth
My goal is to make you fall in love with your postpartum era and remember it as the beautiful and magical time that it actually is.
You & Me
When you choose me for your postpartum care, you can rest assured that you have someone in your corner to help you successfully and gently transition into the next phase of parenthood.
After you give birth, attention shifts to the new baby. But you, the mother are in your most fragile state ever and I will be at your side as close as you need me.
I feel honoured that you consider me as your gate keeper during your most intimate time of your life. Let´s connect on a deeper level and have a call first to get a deeper understanding of your situation and vision.
01
Book your free consulting call with me. Over video or phone we will be able to get to know each other better & you will be able to describe your personal journey and situation.
If you decide to proceed, I´ll send you a contract and invoice as well as a direct booking link. As soon as you make your payment your postpartum doula is officially booked!
Here´s how the booking
process looks like:
02
Idealy we´ll have time to meet in person during your pregnancy so we can create a completely personalized postpartum plan for you that covers all plannable eventualities. I´ll provide you with checklists and other helpful recources and you will let me know how frequently you want me to visit you after your birth.
If your partner and/or other significant family members have time to join our meeting I would be glad to be able to prep him as well a little. If you wish so!
From here on, I´ll be available via whatsapp for you for our whole time together.
03
After the arrival of your little one, our postpartum visits will start. I´ll be there for whatever you will need, everyday can look different and I will be flexible and understanding, because I´ve been there too.
You can always reach out to me outside of my visiting hours when you feel overwhelmed and need a little extra support and I will see how I can make the situation a bit lighter for you.
After our timeline you will be rested, supported and your family will have adjusted to the new life as well. I ´ll have also provided you with self care impulses, tips and tricks for your motherhood years to come.
04
You´ll always have the possibility to add more visits when you feel like you need me at your side for a little longer.
However, I can´t wait to see you step out of your 4rth trimester as a woman that has had time to recover, heal, adjust and fully transitioned into her new role as a mother.
When things don´t go as planned
I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT AS YOUR POSTPARTUM DOULA, I WILL ALWAYS BE ON YOUR SIDE, REGARDLESS OF YOUR BIRTH OUTCOME
Let´s say, you planned a clinical birth and expected to be back home a few days later, ready for me to start home visits but you end up staying at the hospital longer than expected, or your baby needs special care in the NICU but you also have older siblings at home to watch after. Or you give birth to twins and one is released from the hospital but the other one needs to stay. That´s a time where you need extra creative support and helping hands.
I come to visit you at the hospital, I bring you whatever you need, I help you with paperwork and I also support your family by assisting them organizing life around this special situation.
And I will listen.
And also when your newborn baby choses to go back to heaven, I sit with you. Because you are still a postpartum mother and I will support you in everything that you will have to do now.
Because that´s what a Doula does. Holding the mother.
Professionally & Heartfelt.
