Welcome to 3Elders! My name is Carly Riley. I came into this work through my own transition into Motherhood — a time filled with expansion, but also clear gaps in the support new families receive. Today, I provide postpartum care that nurtures healing, attunement, and connection so that Mothers can feel supported as they transition into their new role into community. I dove into various workshops and training sessions which resulted in my Postpartum Doula Certification. In my practice, I draw upon nourishing traditions that support the physiological design of a Mother through: nourishment, warmth, support, loving presence and rest. If a Mother is properly tended to in the first few weeks after giving birth, she has the opportunity to physically heal, to connect with baby, and to slowly integrate back into her community thriving as opposed to surviving. My goal is to create a nurturing space where the Mothers & family feel empowered and validated in their journey through early parenthood. Postpartum care for Mothers isn’t a luxury but a necessity so families and future generations can flourish. I look forward to connecting with you and being a part of your village during this incredible chapter of your life.
