As I study to
become fully certified as a postpartum doula, I'm offering discounted
postpartum doula services for $15 per hour (service from
9pm-9am $20 per hour). No charge for the prenatal
planning appointment.
A postpartum doula can do anything the
mother or family need her to. It could mean running errands, food
shopping, caring for other family members, or maybe the new mom would
just like somebody to help with the baby while she showers, naps, or
eats and takes care of herself. The list of things a postpartum doula
can do is really endless and so are the benefits of having one. A
mother doesn't have to be overwhelmed or having challenges to need a
postpartum doula, the idea is to prevent those things from happening.
In fact research has proven that doulas reduce the risk of postpartum mood disorders like
postpartum depression and baby blues significantly, and allow for increased breastfeeding
success rates.
A newborn baby really does need constant
care and they grow and change so quickly, wouldn't it be nice for the
mother to put all her focus on the baby and leave the dishes and the
laundry to the doula?
$14 per hour when booking
more than 8 hours (from 9pm-9am $19 per hour).
Ask for the gift of a doula. Gift certificates
available in any amount on the shopping
page. Who better than a children loving birth professional to come and
mother the new mother?
