Post Partum Doula
“The first 40 days. The first 6 weeks. The 4th trimester. Transformative and sacred. The sleep deprived stupor where the days blend into nights. The raw and vulnerable place where your heart swells to new depths, intoxicated with the magnificence of your awe inspiring creation. The proud and the powerful. The postpartum period.”
The best gift you can give your baby is the service of a postpartum doula. When a baby enters the family, whether it is your first or third, it takes time to adjust. As a birthing mother your goal is to rest, heal and recover from birth. Get to know your baby as you allow yourself to be held and cared for.
A postpartum doula isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity that should be made available to each and every birthing woman. I have woven together traditional caring methods to suit the modern mother. Some of the support services I offer include:
- Providing you with nourishing meals and snacks
- Planning out your postpartum
- Breastfeeding support
- Debrief after your birth
- Looking after older siblings
- Light housework
- Emotional support
- A nutrition consultation to set yourself up for the coming weeks
- A herbal bath and massage
Emily is available as a postpartum doula in the Sutherland Shire, Sydney city and Eastern Suburbs.
