About me

Hello, my name is Lily Taylor, and I am an Ayurvedic postpartum doula and chef new to the Sonoma area. I began my doula journey in 2017 in Los Angeles & New York. Since then, I have trained across the full spectrum of care—including birth support, reproductive justice, Ayurvedic postpartum care, and Ayurvedic nutrition and culinary arts. Supporting new mothers during the sacred postpartum window is my deepest passion. Through the time-honored lineage of Ayurveda, I provide holistic care that nurtures your body, mind, and spirit. My services range from rejuvenating body therapies to deeply nourishing, custom-cooked meals. When I am not supporting new families, you can usually find me exploring local farmers' markets, volunteering with animals, cooking, and spending time outdoors. I love bringing a sense of warmth, peace, and natural flow into the home, allowing you to fully rest and bond with your baby. I would be honored to meet you and your growing family to see how I can best support you.

Service introduction

Holistic In-Home Postpartum Care: I provide deeply nurturing, comprehensive in-home postpartum support designed to honor and accelerate your physical, emotional, and spiritual recovery during the sacred "fourth trimester." My care focuses on mothering the mother. I offer dedicated home visits during the vital first six weeks after birth, typically in restorative four-hour shifts customized from one to three times per week. During our time together, my goal is to support you in feeling deeply rested and emotionally held as you bond with your newborn. Each visit is tailored to your immediate needs and integrates time-honored, traditional healing modalities. My care includes restorative Marma therapy bodywork with warm herbal oils, traditional belly binding, light tidying, and help with organizing your home to welcome the newest addition to your family. I also provide a safe, grounding space for emotional processing, alongside gentle newborn care support so you can sleep with peace of mind. To further customize your healing, you can integrate specialized holistic add-ons into your package. These include Reiki sessions, personalized flower essences, custom-blended herbal baths, organic botanical teas, and dedicated in-home postpartum meal preparation focused on warming, nutrient-dense foods optimal for your recovery.
