Navigating the postpartum period can be overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone.
Why hire a Certified Postpartum Doula and/or Lactation Support?
Preparing for the postpartum period is as important as preparing for the birth. It is a crucial investment in your family’s wellbeing. Postpartum Doulas provide evidence-based guidance on newborn care, infant feeding, soothing techniques, infant sleep/safe sleep habits, establishing age appropriate routines, recovery from birth, and more. I’m certified through DONA which signifies that I have met a recognized standard of postpartum doula training and demonstrates my commitment to this profession.
Hiring a professional who is certified in lactation can also make a significant difference for parents navigating breastfeeding and infant feeding by providing:
Evidence-based Guidance: Specialized training in breastfeeding education, anatomy, and lactation management.
Personalized Support: Tailored guidance to your unique situation—whether it’s latching issues, milk supply concerns, or pumping strategies.
Early Problem Prevention: Identify potential feeding challenges early and provide solutions before they become major issues.
Community Connection: Connect families with local resources, support groups, and healthcare providers when needed.
