Postpartum Doula Services
We have Postpartum Certified Doulas and trained doulas who provide physical, informational, and educational support to the mothers and families of newborns during the 4th trimester and to the families suffering from postpartum depression, during the first year after giving birth. The doula will nurture the family, educate the family, assess the family’s needs and provide community referrals which can meet those needs. In today’s western culture most, new mothers have very little support and holistic postpartum services are needed more and more in this transitional period.
