Postpartum Doula Care
This is different from nanny care. Postpartum doula care is for both the baby and parent(s). This can involve meal prep, newborn care, breastfeeding/lactation support, womb/belly massage, and more. I offer postpartum doula care services Monday-Friday between the hours of 9am-11pm. The hourly rate ($45/hr) increases by $5 during holiday times. Minimum of 2 hours can be booked and a maximum of 8 hours.
Nanny/Babysitter
This is different from postpartum doula care. (I do not offer live in or travel nanny services.) I offer nanny services Monday-Friday between the hours of 9am-11pm. Minimum of 2 hours can be booked and a maximum of 8 hours. The hourly rate ($45/hr) increases by $5 during holiday times. I am an experienced nanny of 10+ years and I am also a behavioral health therapist for kids/teens, and oldest sibling of 6. Childcare comes naturally to me and kids have so much fun with me.
What to expect
I am a full spectrum holistic doula/birthkeeper and midwife birth assistant; I found my passion for birth work growing up supporting women in my family through their pregnancies/births, then later as I studied black maternal health and the mortality rate of black birthers. My activism is the foundation of my birth work. I believe in advocacy, empowerment and education while helping birthers along with their families make informed decisions for their experience. My specialties are spirit/energy work for momma and baby, perinatal yoga + meditation, breathwork and herbal preparations!
