Gift Certificate for Doula Services
Your friends and family can purchase the gift of a Postpartum Doula, who can assist you during the day or night. They can help guide you through all the “firsts” with your baby/babies - bathing, swaddling, breastfeeding, diapering, naturopathic care - and so much more. A Postpartum Doula can help anticipate the health and well-being of you and your family after the birth of a child. Every family is different, and while the needs are consistent, they emerge at different times and ways. They are there, guiding and providing care in ways that equip mothers, fathers, and children to thrive once a newborn arrives.
My mission is to help women thrive in the postpartum phase of life. I love talking to women about their particular needs and together, coming up with sustainable lifestyle solutions during this transformational period.
