Held In Arms

POSTPARTUM SUPPORT        

I consider myself an extension of yourself, seeking to accomplish tasks you may not have the energy to undertake and provide suggestions to baby’s schedule and needs.  Some folks find that their experience of childbirth and the transition to parenting can be made sweeter with a little extra help.  My experience working with newborns and families over the past 20 years provides insight to troubleshooting which of the  possible pathways is best for your family. I have experience with multiples, elimination communication,  attachment parenting, reflux, sleep strategies, the demands of large families and much more.  My goals are to bolster your confidence in your intuitive abilities and create solutions to the struggles of those first weeks as you and your family transition. Duties of Postpartum Support include meal prep and light housework, sharing knowledge of developmental stages of the newborn, newborn cues, lactation support, providing respite support, tips on postpartum healing and harmonizing the new family's dynamics, and birth processing.

The postpartum time is a sacred time for the new family. The needs of a postpartum mother vary, but cultures throughout humanity carry on similar traditions. I find that much of this work and systems of support need to be established before birth. This is preventative care. 

During our 2 hour prenatal consultation, we will get acquainted with your needs and  plan for what is appropriate for your schedule, family and situation.
