Nurture and Nourish
What city is your “home base?”: Tavares
How far are you willing to travel?: 50 miles
Do you offer a sliding scale or discounted services?: Yes. I offer a sliding scale or discounted services for families in need. I also do 2 pro bono work cases/year.
Nurture and Nourish: Taking care of the mother so they can take care of the baby.
Focus and attention is typically on the birth, but evidence shows that support during the postpartum time is critical for the new parents.
The 4th trimester is full of joy and excitement but can also feel overwhelming and be a challenging transition time. I would love to help you adjust to your new role by providing physical and emotional support.
I’m a Certified Postpartum Doula, PCD(DONA), Certified Breastfeeding Counselor (CBC) and Certified Postpartum Nutrition Professional (CPPNP). I also hold certification from the American Red Cross in Infant, Child and Adult CPR and First Aid.
I offer postpartum doula support, lactation support, postpartum nutrition counseling and cooking, and sibling doula care.
Postpartum Doula Support:
Time to feel protected, honored and replenished
Newborn care
Reassurance, guidance, evidence-based information, resources
Light housekeeping and laundry
Baby sleep, baby wearing, baby bonding
Nutrition:
Over 50% of women enter postpartum depleted of key nutrients.
Healing after birth takes a lot of energy and care. A homemade meal service, with an array of options, makes it easy to give your body the nourishment it needs and eliminate the stress of preparing and cooking postpartum meals.
Lactation Support:
Breast feeding and bottle-feeding support
Sibling Doula Care:
Providing care for older siblings so you can focus on your birth experience.
Sibling Doula Care:
Providing care for older siblings so you can focus on your birth experience.
