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.
I offer a five week postpartum class for moms and/or dads and their babies from age birth to around six months. Each week we focus on a different topic that relates to the postpartum parent and their new babe. Topics include breastfeeding, (co-)sleeping, nutrition and exercise, basic baby care, baby wearing/diapering, vaccinations, going back to (paid) work?, starting solids…and so much more!! Classes meet on Tuesday mornings from 9:30-11:00 and the cost is $50.00.
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.
