What is a postpartum doula?

Our professionally trained doulas support postpartum recovery for parents and educate the family on newborn growth and development, being present and available as everyone adjusts to their new normal. 
​
​Doulas refer to appropriate community resources as needed, including to Daisy C.H.A.I.N.'s lactation and feeding support team home visitors.
Contact us prenatally to get started.

    Individualized Support                      

• We provide individuals and families with in-home doula care for two weeks post-pregnancy or after the arrival of baby for a total of 5 two-hour visits.
• We meet with you before your baby is born so we can learn how to best support your family's specific needs. 
• Our goals are that each parent and family we serve goes away with increased confidence, having learned something new, and has had their stress reduced.
• We understand that each family is unique in their needs, so we strive to be flexible and creative in getting each person exactly the right fit for support from our team.
