Reality of today's life styles is that extended family and a close knit community support
does not exist in American families for the postpartum period as it does in other countries
and cultures.  Family and friends already have full time jobs and their own families. 

Couples are having babies later in life, therefore grandparents are older and do not have
the energy needed to care for the new mother and her baby.  Many time the new mother
and the grandmothers do not even live in the same state, thus postpartum care with
mother or mother-in-laws is not available for the minimal 6 weeks postpartum period.

Listed below are just a few of the benefits
when you hire a postpartum doula.
 

  • The postpartum doula mothers the new mother
    emotionally and physically.
     

  • As your postpartum doula I bring back the honor and
    care the new mother deserves.
     

  • A doula gives special recognition and rest helping
    to speed mothers recovery.
     

  • Extra hands free up more time for sharing
    of responsibilities.
     

  • More time for bonding with baby and rekindling
    mom and dads relationships.
     

  • Doulas are trained to provide breastfeeding
    and bottle feeding support.
     

  • The positive reinforcement of a postpartum doula
    equals less anxiety and stress, thus also adds to
    speed mothers recovery time.
