Let me take things off your plate and help you thrive in your new role as a parent by providing:

  • Consistent emotional support, company, an open ear, validation, reassurance and encouragement

  • Education on basic newborn care such as diapering, bathing, sleeping and feeding

  • Bodyfeeding/bottle feeding/basic lactation support

  • Assistance with the care and adjustment of older siblings

  • Help with meal prep, snacks and light household chores

  • Overnight care so you can maximize sleep

  • Facilitating of rest and self-care to the birthing person

  • Reliable referrals to other useful resources
