Why Postpartum Care Matters

The phrase fourth trimester exists for a reason. Your body just did something extraordinary, and it needs time, rest, and support to recover. Meanwhile, there is a brand-new human who needs round-the-clock attention.

A postpartum doula fills the gap that used to be filled by extended family and village neighbors. We handle the practical stuff so you can focus on recovery, bonding, and figuring out this whole parenting thing one day at a time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a postpartum doula do?

A postpartum doula supports your recovery by helping with newborn care (feeding, soothing, sleep routines), light household tasks, meal preparation, and sibling adjustment. We are there so you can rest, heal, and bond with your baby.

How many hours of postpartum care do most families need?

Most families start with 6-8 hours per day for the first 2-3 weeks, then taper to 4 hours as confidence grows. Some choose overnight care (8-10 hours) to maximize sleep. There is no minimum commitment - we adapt to your needs.

What is the difference between daytime and overnight postpartum care?

Daytime care ($65/hr) focuses on teaching you skills, household support, and baby care while you are awake. Overnight care ($85/hr) handles all nighttime feedings, diaper changes, and soothing - you sleep while we care for the baby.

Do you help with breastfeeding?

Yes! All our postpartum doulas are trained in basic lactation support including positioning, latch help, and feeding cues. For complex issues, we connect you with our IBCLC-certified lactation consultants for specialized care.

Is postpartum care covered by insurance?

Some insurance plans cover postpartum doula care under preventive care or wellness benefits. California SB 654 requires Medi-Cal to cover doula services. We can verify your specific coverage at no cost.
