The Great Northwest Doula Service
Postpartum Doula
The baby is born and I need help!
Are you an overwhelmed first timer or possibly an experienced mom just needing an extra hand? Maybe you desperately need a nap or 15 minutes for a shower but the baby wont stop crying, don't worry, I am there to help you out! I'll make sure the baby is fed, changed and well taken care of while you take a much needed and well earned break. Simply put, my goal as a Postpartum Doula is to make your life easier.
