Linda Reason - Postpartum Doula

About Linda

About Linda I am a Postpartum Doula, a lactation counselor and a Newborn Care Specialist. I care for and support new parents and their families after the birth of their baby/babies. I offer infant care, education and guidance, breastfeeding and bottle feeding support, emotional and educational support, cooking, errands and more. This is a very exciting, yet very overwhelming transition in your life and I will be there to guide you through the first 6-12 weeks. The need for support after birth is great. Many families live very far away from the members of their family that could offer help and guidance. If they do live close, chances are they work or have very busy lives themselves. Many partners have to go back to work after just a couple of days or a week off. Having a postpartum doula reduces the chance of depression and increases your positive nursing experience.

What to expect

Each clients schedule is customized based on the individual needs of the family. On an average day, I prepare nutritional meals, allow mom to eat, rest and shower, take care of baby’s laundry and restock the nursery, teach and provide guidance on the education of newborns and their care, feeding techniques: either breastfeeding or bottle. Answer and discuss any questions you have about your baby.
