Postpartum Doula Visit - Overnight

An overnight visit may be in your home, or in the hospital. Whether your baby was born yesterday, or has been here for weeks, the sleeplessness that comes with caring for a baby through the night can be debilitating. 

During an overnight visit, I will care for your baby while you rest, recover or catch up on some much-needed sleep. If bottles are available, I will feed baby as needed. If you are nursing, I will bring baby to you when it is time for a feed, and then sweep him/her back to the nursery while you get back to sleep. I will also follow safe sleep practices while ensuring that your baby gets the best sleep possible. 

Please note that applicable taxes are included in the cost of this service.
