Postpartum Doula Services:
Gentle Beginnings also provides postpartum doula services. I am
currently in training with With Women, a Colorado-based doula
certifying and referral organization, and so I am at this time offering
postpartum services at a reduced rate.
Experience:
I draw from a background which includes: over seven years of
providing infant- and child- care, breastfeeding classes and seminars,
and providing follow-up support to my birth clients in their postpartum
time.
Postpartum philosophy and support:
Adjusting to life with a new baby can be a wonderful and a challenging
time for a family. My goal as a postpartum doula is to help make Mom’
s recovery easier and the transition for the whole family smoother. I
seek to meet a family where they are, and to give the practical support
that refreshes and encourages each one.
Description of Services:
Gentle Beginnings’ postpartum services encompasses several areas of
support, which may look like the following. Emotional support: a
listening ear and reassurance; physical support: help with baby care,
enabling Mom to get more rest, and providing massage for a sore back;
informational support: breastfeeding help, newborn care, and access to
additional resources if needed; other practical support: tidying,
laundry, and food preparation.
Please call for more information about how a postpartum doula could
assist your family in the early days and weeks with your newborn.
