Postpartum Doula Support in Portland, OR

Whether this is your first or fourth baby, or you have multiples, it's difficult to determine how much support you’ll need once your little one arrives. 

And the transition to life with your new baby happens so fast. One minute you’re dreaming of what life will be like with your bundle of joy...And the next you’re suddenly adjusting to your new role as a parent, getting to know your baby, and balancing all your new responsibilities. 

But often during pregnancy, we get so caught up in preparing for labor and birth that often we forget to prepare for what comes AFTER all of this, once your baby arrives!

I’ve been there! Often, the “basics” that seemed easy enough before your baby arrived become much more challenging: 

• Feeding yourself and your partner healthy well-balanced meals;
• Getting in enough sleep to get through the day⁠;
• Allowing yourself to take breaks to rest, shower, or go for a walk.

I’ll help take the pressure off and be an extra set of supportive hands to help you:

• Adjust to your demanding new schedule;
• Give hands-on support with infant care;
• Provide evidence-based advice for a healthy postpartum recovery.

Because when a baby is born, a parent is also born. As you develop and grow in your new skills, you should have access to the knowledge, physical and emotional support, and help you need along the way. 

Are you ready to feel confident in caring for your baby? Let’s get prepared for the 4th trimester!

Want to have virtual support from a professional postpartum doula? Here’s where you get answers and guidance to all your newborn questions the first weeks after birth. I’m just a phone call, email, text, or video call away! 

This is the perfect package for families that want consistent virtual emotional and informational support.

As your virtual postpartum doula, I’ll help answer questions throughout your family’s transition to life with a newborn...no matter where you live! You can still expect the same level of support you’d receive from in-person support, but from a distance. 

Get support for your postpartum recovery and answers about newborn care, chest/breastfeeding, diapering, sleeping routines, baby wearing, swaddling, soothing your baby, etc. 

We’ll meet via Zoom (and/or other virtual support platforms) and you’ll have continuous support via email and text. Plus, you’ll gain access to my resources and referral network!

 If you need a combination of daytime and nighttime support, please contact me to create a custom package to meet your needs.
