DOULAS OF LANE COUNTY - POSTPARTUM DOULAS
A postpartum doula provides care for the family after the baby arrives. She offers support to the new mother as she recovers from the birth and helps the new family adjust. The postpartum doula offers assistance, mentoring, and comfort to the new mother to ease the transition of immediate postpartum into early parenting. Postpartum doulas offer individualized care to support the changing needs of a new mother and baby.

As a postpartum doula, I help you find your new normal.
Babies join families through many avenues - adoption, full-term birth, premature birth, multiples – all families will benefit from the support of a postpartum doula.
I bring in to you home a nurturing presence and individualized services. While my postpartum doula role is flexible, I provide reliable and evidenced-based information and I have a thorough knowledge of local services, products, and professionals.

In the Peace Corps I lived in India and learned about the natural processes of birth, breastfeeding and attachment parenting. Older women of the village helped after births so that the new mom and baby would have as little stress as possible, and so that the rest of the family members were taken care of as well. As a postpartum doula I come to your home to offer you this kind of support in the first days or weeks after the birth. I will help you to process your feelings and memories of the birth and to adjust to life with your new baby. I can help you with breastfeeding and infant care and am available for light housekeeping, care of siblings, meal preparation, laundry and other tasks so that you can rest and bond with your baby.

I have had the joy and privilege of supporting families for more than 25 years, and a Certified Professional Labor (DONA), and Postpartum Doula for 8 1/2. I love that I am able to provide evidence based information and empowerment to the women and families I support. I am also able to provide Encapsulation as Tincture support to client who choose to take advantage of the benefits that provides.
My heart is to provide an "extra set of hands" that serve the mother and her family in the journey of birth as well as postpartum. I believe that we have both the right and responsibility to be fully informed regarding the choices we can make. This is especially important in the process of pregnancy and birth. As a woman is encouraged with the spoken truth and evidence based information, about her own ability to birth she is empowered. She is then able to fully communicate what she wants for her journey and know that her voice and heart are being heard. When this is followed up with support for both the birthing woman and her primary support person, they are able make the choices that are right for their birth experience, as well as their postpartum transition home.
I consider it a profound and humbling honor to be present during the journey through pregnancy, birth and postpartum with a family. When I am not supporting families, I can be found playing in my Mom’s garden, teaching kids to swim or simply enjoying the adventure that is life.
