Postpartum Support
Designed to tend to your healing, bonding, and nourishment after birthā however you define it.
I needā¦
Each postpartum session has a unique cadence that we create together, based on what your body, baby, and nervous system need that day. Itās never rigid or one-size-fits-allā your care can feel as structured or as spacious as you need it to be.
Before my visit, thereās nothing to clean or prepare. You donāt need to brush your hair. You donāt need to āhost meā. Iāll arrive quietly with my folk care basket ā a rotating collection of supportive goods tailored to your needs and preferences: herbs and teas, belly wraps, breast packs, healing balms, and other comforts for your body and spirit.
We begin with a check-in, and from there, the session unfolds. You get cozy while I bring you something warm to drink. I might tidy the kitchen, fold the laundry, cook a meal. I might provide infant care while you sleep or shower. Sometimes weāll prepare a sitz bath or do some gentle bodywork.
Or maybe what you really need is to talk. So we make space for your birth story, your relationship shifts, your feelings about feeding, or your identity as itās unraveling and re-forming.
Each session is different, but the feeling is the same: you are seen, you are supported, you are reminded that youāre doing an incredible job!
