Postpartum Doula Support

Your journey into parenthood will be one of the most significant (and potentially challenging) seasons of your life. Having postpartum doula support can bring confidence and calm in your transition to life with a newborn. 

As a postpartum doula, I help you craft a plan for after birth or bringing your baby home (in the case of surrogate birth or adoption). For many parents, the postpartum period is wildly unknown.

The birth as the “big event” often gets all of the attention, but what about after baby arrives?

Postpartum belly wrapping can help you with regaining strength, getting back to pre-pregnancy size, and easing pain. I will teach you how to check yourself for abdominal separation. While you are wrapped, we will talk about your postpartum recovery plans. I can refer you to local providers and resources to aid you in your recovery journey.

Testimonials

“Jenna is absolutely the best. We first hired her for sleep training services 2 years ago when our son was 3 months old. I had read all of the books and tried it all, but nothing was working. Once we hired Jenna, our son slept completely through the night FOUR NIGHTS LATER! I was in disbelief. Two years later, he is still the best sleeper and I attribute all of it to Jenna. All of my friends are jealous of his sleep patterns and it truly is due to Jenna’s sleep training. The friends that I have referred to Jenna for sleep training have also had the best experience and have children who sleep just as well as ours, so I know our son is not a fluke and her methods and guidance are proven.”

Shannon, Seattle, WA

“Jenna is loving, kind and encouraging. Her willingness to learn what our families desires for our child's sleep was paramount to our success. Jenna took the time to meet with and learn about where our baby would be sleeping, family dynamics (siblings) and what our end goal was before prescribing an implementation plan. Jenna is available, encouraging and most importantly she is flexible in her approach. I cannot recommend Jenna and her services enough. She made bringing home our second baby less stressful and our family is more cohesive as a result. Thank you, Jenna!”

Jeanna, Columbia, MO

“Jenna used her extensive knowledge and expertise in newborns while sleep training our daughter. She is friendly, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and not afraid to take on a challenge. During her overnight shifts, her responsibilities included sleep training our daughter, preparing bottles, feeding, providing baths, changing diapers, calming and quieting our daughter, and allowing us a quiet night’s sleep and peace of mind knowing that our little bundle of joy was safe and being taken care of. Jenna’s calming energy not only kept our daughter calm, but also provided a stress-free environment while adjusting to our new family of three children.”

Marissa, Honolulu, HI

“If you want someone knowledgeable, kind and to be by your side throughout your birth and after then Jenna is your girl. I can’t talk highly enough about her and love that she also incorporates essential oils. You won’t be disappointed.”

Elizabeth, Victoria, Australia

“One quality that I appreciate the most is Jenna is open and understanding and always respects my personal decisions, views, and opinions. Jenna is a wealth of information and not only has the expertise backed by professional credentials, but through experience. Jenna was always just a phone call or text away to help answer any question I had and was always so prompt in responding (and in sending me resources and evidence based information to access). Jenna provided not only holistic remedies, but information on western medicine and medical procedures. She provided coaching and guidance for the labor and delivery process to both my husband and me.”

Jody, Honolulu, HI

The weeks and months after your baby arrives home can be filled with all the feelings..


Joy, love, exhaustion, worry, wonder, etc. Having a plan in place for “the fourth trimester” can facilitate a smoother transition. A postpartum doula typically supports your family in preparing for the arrival of and during the first 12 weeks of baby’s life. I recommend you engage a doula prior to birth so that you have a plan in place.

I can help with planning for…

  • Meal trains

  • Volunteer help such as mothers/ sisters/ friends

  • Hired help such as house cleaners or dog walkers

  • Schedule for visitors

  • Making healing recovery appointments (such as postpartum massage or chiropractor)

  • Photography scheduling… and more

How a postpartum doula can help…

A postpartum doula is a knowledgeable resource that will guide you through the delicate postpartum stage. I provide informational, emotional, and physical support as you transition into this phase of parenthood. Doula support can include: 

  • I offer postpartum belly wrapping services to facilitate faster core recovery. I’m also very experienced with natural healing tools like herbs, essential oils, and using nutrition to aid in healing. Part of your healing journey is also processing your birth experience. As a birth and postpartum doula, I am a listening ear.

  • Establishing a feeding relationship with your newborn is extremely important in the first 12 weeks. I can provide assistance and education and also refer out to IBCLC lactation consultants when needed.

  • I am well connected and networked with the expert providers in our community. You might need to see an infant or postnatal chiropractor, tongue tie specialist, IBCLC, mental health support, or others. Googling for these providers when you’re tired and need them is less than ideal. I will connect you right away.

 

  • Parents often ask, “Where is the manual for this baby?”. I can help with instruction on swaddling, diapering, bathing, tummy time, cord care, etc.

  • Nutritious meal preparation, light household chores, and much more. You have a new baby. I can help with “cocooning” your family with nourishing food, doing the dishes or laundry, and making sure you get a nap or night sleep by settling baby.

  • As a certified pediatric sleep consultant, I always talk about sleep with my postpartum clients. We will discuss essential tools to optimize your sleep (which is essential for your recovery) and how to use them. Sometimes a postpartum doula will simply hold your baby for contact naps while you sleep or shower. The extra pair of hands often brings sweet relief in those first couple of months.
