What is a postpartum doula?

According to Postpartum Support International,

“Postpartum doulas provide families information and support on infant feeding, emotional and physical recovery from childbirth, infant soothing, and coping skills for new parents.”

What Families are Saying

Featured
Molly, Mom of Three

Lynn is fabulous and helped me with all 3 of my babies. Having Lynn come to my home was such a wonderful experience that started my breastfeeding journey off on the right foot with my third baby. She is so knowledgeable and taught me so many new things. Her communication after the consult is super helpful. It is so nice to know I can shoot her a text or call if i have a question and she’s there to support me. Lynn truly was the most helpful part of my breastfeeding/postpartum journey, she is such a blessing!
