Postpartum
Postpartum is the integration of ending and beginning. You have made it through pregnancy and birth and find yourself in need of rest, nourishment, support and compassion.
This is a hugely vulnerable time where life is adjusting and reconfiguring. Having someone to hold space for your needs, to offer a listening ear, to validate your experience and guide you to appropriate support can transform your journey into Motherhood.
As your Postnatal Doula, I aim to bring emotional and practical support to help ease the transition in the first few weeks and months of parenthood. I offer personalised support to meet the unique needs of you and your family.
Postpartum is a time to slow down, rest, recover and bond, so I'll work to protect and support this. I aim to nurture and nourish you, so that you can do the same for your baby. I'll focus on helping you heal by bringing my knowledge of nutrition and health in the postpartum period.
Following Birth I will visit and guide you through a Post Birth Debrief, offering emotional support and signposting you to further support if needed. It's important to reflect on all you have been through up until this point. Pregnancy and birth are hugely transformative, having the space to share and process your story means you can better understand how you'll move forward into motherhood. I will always listen without judgement and agenda.
I will ensure you are nourished with healthy restorative meals, easy snacks, personalised nutritional guidance, batch cooking and setting you up for the weeks and months to come.
I will help you prioritise self-care, care for the baby while you sleep, shower or do something for you to recharge. I will offer help around your home so that you feel calm in your environment, whether you need laundry done, the dishes washed or dinner prepared. I will offer support in feeding your baby, however that looks for you. Ultimately I'll be there to listen, guide, support and care.
