About Us

New mothers need rest and proper nourishment to recover physically from giving birth. A Postpartum Doula provides care for the new mother (and her family)so that life continues to function while still recognizing this is a unique and special time in a family's life.

 

Giving birth can be the most important and emotional event in a woman's life and a new baby in the family can change the way a couple relates to one another. A Postpartum Doula can help instill confidence; facilitating good communication while nurturing the transition from pregnancy to parenthood in a compassionate, yet practical way.

 

  All the advice from well-meaning relatives and friends can leave new parents feeling overwhelmed and confused. A Postpartum Doula provides current information about infant care, breastfeeding, normal growth & development and services in the specific communities she serves; empowering and enabling new parents to make informed choices.

A complimentary prenatal visit is a great way to learn how bringing in postpartum support can benefit you and your family surrounding the time of your baby's birth.  Contact us for more information or visit www.motherjoy.ca.
