postpartum services
In our culture, we have forgotten how to nurture and support postpartum women. I have had the opportunity of helping many women adjust to their new role as mother. I feel honored to be part of a new family getting to know each other.
Tula and I offer a weekly postpartum class for families with babies (newborns to six months). Each week we discuss a different topic…breastfeeding, co-sleeping, diapering, vaccinations, baby care, wearing your baby, starting solids, nutrition, birth control, care providers, infant massage, going back to work, pumping…I could go on all day! There is an opportunity every week to get breastfeeding support, to ask questions and share concerns as well. You have the chance to see old friends from class and to make new friends too. So many of you are going through the same joys and challenges…I think getting you all together leads to great things!!
The postpartum class meets on Tuesdays mornings from 9:00-11:00 at bearth prenatal and postpartum center at 2614 Beaver Avenue. The cost is $5.00/class or $25.00 for unlimited classes…everyone is welcome!!!
Also, for an hourly fee, I will come to your home and help you with breastfeeding, baby care and adjusting to your new baby and your new body. The weeks after the birth of your baby can be emotionally and physically overwhelming. I bring knowledge, experience and comfort to you, your partner and your baby. This is a time when it’s nice to have someone there to listen, give support and help you get things organized and on the right track.
