Postpartum Services
Postpartum care doesn't have an expiration date. Whether your baby arrived last week, last month, or you're just now realizing you need support, I'm here. I offer postpartum-only care for families who want expert guidance, hands-on support, and someone who genuinely cares during the fourth trimester. These packages are for families who want hands-on guidance, feeding support, and someone who shows up when things feel hard.

Families who want concentrated, hands-on support during the most intense early days. You've just come home from the hospital or birth center, and you need someone who knows what they're doing — someone to help with feeding, hold the baby while you shower, make you a real meal, and reassure you that you're doing this right. This is for the first raw, tender, overwhelming week when everything feels new and you just need a steady presence.

Families who want consistent, expert support as they move through the first month of parenthood. You're establishing feeding, figuring out sleep, recovering from birth, and learning who your baby is, and you want someone who shows up regularly, not just once. You value having a steady person who knows your family, checks in on you, helps you build sustainable rhythms, and reminds you that you're doing a good job when everything feels hard.
FAQs
-
A: I recommend reaching out during your second trimester (around 16-20 weeks) to ensure availability. That said, I've supported families who reached out much later - if you're interested, get in touch and we'll see if we're a good fit.
-
A: Absolutely. It's never too late to get support. Whether your baby arrived last week or you're a few weeks in and realizing you need help, I offer postpartum-only packages for families who need guidance, feeding support, or just someone who understands what you're going through.
-
A: The First Week Intensive is concentrated support during your first week home - 6 visits when everything is raw and new, focused on getting you through those first intense days with feeding help, meals, and a steady presence. The First Month Foundation is 10 visits spread across your first month, with weekly check-ins. It's about building sustainable rhythms and having consistent support as you establish feeding, recovery, and confidence through those early weeks.
-
A: Birth doulas support you through labor and delivery, with a few postpartum visits afterward. Postpartum-only support focuses entirely on the weeks after birth - feeding, recovery, newborn care, emotional support, and helping you adjust to life with a new baby. If you didn't have a birth doula or your birth doula's postpartum visits have ended, postpartum-only care gives you focused support when you need it most.
-
A: I'm based in Brooklyn and primarily serve families in Brooklyn and Manhattan. I'm open to families in other NYC boroughs depending on timing and availability. Unfortunately for postpartum only services I cannot take families outside NYC proper.
-
A: Absolutely. I support all families and use inclusive language. Your family structure, identity, and birth preferences are honored and respected.
-
A: It's a virtual monthly gathering for current and former clients — a space to connect, ask questions, share what's going well (or hard), and build community with other parents. It's optional, but most families love having this built-in support beyond our one-on-one time.
-
A: Life happens, and birth is unpredictable. We'll talk through my cancellation and rescheduling policies during our consultation. I do my best to stay flexible while also honoring the on-call commitment I make to you.
-
A: I'm a birth and postpartum doula trained through Ancient Song Doula Services and Manhattan Birth. I'm also a social worker (MSW from Hunter College) and have been supporting families since 2019. I paused my practice from 2022-2024 to be present for my own son's early years, and I'm back now with even deeper insight into what new parents need.
