Overnight Postpartum Support

My overnight postpartum support is designed to help your family get the rest you need while I care for your newborn during the night. I arrive in the evening and provide hands-on newborn care including feeding support, diaper changes, soothing, and settling baby back to sleep so you can rest uninterrupted. During the night, I continue to monitor and respond to your baby’s needs while handling feeds, soothing, and tracking patterns as needed. During quiet periods, I rest while remaining fully available to your baby throughout the shift. My goal is to create a calm, supportive environment so you can wake up feeling more rested and confident.

I was lucky enough to have Rachel as a night doula postpartum after my baby was born. I was very nervous as a first-time parent and Rachel provided me a lot of confidence and answered many questions that my husband and I had. I was recovering from a painful c-section and Rachel not only helped with feeding , soothing, and changing my baby overnight, but she went above and beyond by doing light household chores for the baby. This included washing bottles, organizing the nursery, and folding baby laundry. I valued Rachel’s ability to be proactive because often times I was so tired I didn’t even know what I needed help with. there are many lessons Rachel taught me with pumping, storing milk, and changing my baby that I will never forget! I would highly recommend Rachel to any parent looking for help with their baby!!

Rachel was an absolute lifesaver for our family. At the time I had a 3-month old and a toddler. Having Rachel with us throughout the night to care for our youngest allowed us to get some well rested and much needed sleep. She was especially helpful at 3AM cleaning and emptying my pumps! She also did some other light tasks such as putting away laundry while our baby was asleep. It can be scary to have a stranger come into your home but from the moment we met her we knew she was someone we could trust. I can’t recommend Rachel enough! I will definitely have her on speed dial for my next baby (one day)!!

Rachel was a wonderful calming presence in the terrifying-for-first-time-parents newborn phase for our family. She was encouraging, helped us understand our little guy's cues, and helped me get things in order at home. Thank you, Rachel :)

Frequently asked questions

How long do families usually use postpartum doula support?

I typically support families during the first 12 weeks after birth, which is such an important time for recovery and adjustment. Within that window, families choose the amount of support that best fits their needs—some prefer a few visits or nights, while others choose more consistent, ongoing support throughout the fourth trimester.

What areas do you serve?

I primarily serve families in Naperville and surrounding western suburbs.

What does a postpartum doula do?

I provide hands-on support during the postpartum period including newborn care, feeding support, emotional reassurance, light household help related to baby care, and guidance as you adjust to life with your new baby.

Do you offer overnight care?

Yes! I offer overnight support where I care for your baby so you can get uninterrupted rest. I handle feedings, diaper changes, soothing, and settling baby back to sleep throughout the night.

How soon after birth can you start support?

I can begin support as soon as you’re home and ready for help. Some families also choose to schedule support ahead of time so everything is ready for their due date.

Do you support breastfeeding and bottle feeding?

Yes, I offer support for both breastfeeding and bottle feeding. I can help with positioning, latch basics, bottle routines, and troubleshooting common feeding challenges.

How much does Rachel charge?

Rachel's Overnight Postpartum Support package is $45 USD, per hour.
