Frequently asked questions

What is the typical schedule of a newborn care specialist

Newborn Care Specialists are typically employed full-time; either working 9-12-hour shifts or 24-hour shifts five to seven days a week. Some may work 3-4 days per week. The work week is up to you the parent to decide. They may work morning or evenings. Working nights helps families get the most amount of rest, so they are energized to enjoy their new baby. The Newborn Care Specialist will work with a family to set the baby’s day schedule to best meet a family’s needs. If 24-hour service is requested, a four to six-hour break should be provided to the Infant Specialist during that time. They need to rest too

How long should hire a postpartum doula for

It is said by some that hiring a postpartum doula is a luxury but they are a necessity. We live in a day and age were immediate family members may be scattered across the globe. Hiring extra help after the birth fills a gap that was historically filled by extended members of the family. It is important that you add this expence in your maternity budget. To have the full effect of a postpartum doula, we recommend that you reserve them for a minimum of four weeks after the birth or 6 weeks, depending on your needs. Families with preemies, twins, triplets, and quadruplets tend to have doula for a longer period of time. The doula can discuss your needs and find out how long the service should be provided in order to meet your goals.
