Postpartum Doula
You’re home from the hospital with a precious new baby in your arms.
Are you feeling overwhelmed and exhausted?
Moms and Dads also need to be nurtured.
Some days they might want to be mentored, some days they just want to be taken care of.
I can be there for you with my hands.
I can be there for you with my heart.
Do you need me to hold the baby while you rest?
Or to play with your older children while you bond with the baby?
Or to help you sort out hopes and dreams for your family?
Would you like to process your birth story?
Need help finding evidence based answers to your parenting questions?
Would you take some time for yourself by doing birth art?
Maybe you need me to wash the dishes piled up in the sink.
Or run out for some mayonnaise.
Or find a lactation consultant, a cleaning lady, or a mohel.
Whether this is your first baby or your tenth, I can provide guidance in child development, family dynamics, or difficult birth situations.
I am professionally trained by Doulas of North America International and Birthing from Within.
My hands and my heart stand ready to help you.
Please call me for a free consultation at 773-965-5221 or email me at bernicerivkin@gmail.com.
