Newborn Care Education
At Circle Birth, our postpartum doulas provide personalized newborn care education that adapts to the immediate and changing needs of new parents. While a newborn care class offers important basics, our doulas serve as a continuous source of support, helping you navigate real-life questions and challenges that arise once you're caring for your baby at home. The intricacies of newborn care often emerge through day-to-day experiences, and with regular visits, our doulas offer hands-on guidance for these specific moments. This approach ensures you feel confident, knowledgeable, and fully supported as you bond with and care for your newborn.
Informational & Emotional Support
At Circle Birth, we understand that the birth of a baby also brings the birth of new parents. Our doulas are extensively trained to guide you through this transition, offering support for postpartum mood disorders, assistance with latch and feeding, and help with using baby or breastfeeding tools.
In addition to practical care, our doulas are compassionate listeners, here to help you navigate the emotional and physical changes that come with parenthood. We’re dedicated to helping you adjust and embrace your evolving family dynamic with confidence and support.
Feeding Support
Feeding a newborn can be a complex process, from achieving a good latch to choosing the right bottle or pump, managing milk supply, and properly storing breast milk. Every step is crucial to making sure your baby is well-nourished and thriving. A postpartum doula from Circle Birth offers personalized, hands-on feeding support tailored to your specific needs, providing practical guidance as you navigate feeding at home. While a breastfeeding class is a great foundation for those planning to breastfeed, your postpartum doula can address any concerns that arise along the way, helping you feel more confident and ensuring a smoother feeding experience for both you and your baby.
Effortless Home Maintenance
Our postpartum doulas go above and beyond to keep your home environment calm and comfortable. Along with expert newborn care, they assist with light household tasks such as washing baby bottles and pump parts, handling laundry, and organizing the nursery. During daytime visits, they can also help with meal preparation, accommodating your family’s dietary needs. This extra support allows you to focus on bonding with your baby while we take care of the day-to-day tasks, making your transition into parenthood easier and more manageable.
Thorough Nightly/Daily Reports
Our postpartum doula provides detailed daily reports that recap everything from both day and night shifts. These updates keep you informed about your baby’s sleep habits, feeding progress, and effective soothing techniques, giving you peace of mind. The doula will also share any new strategies or adjustments made to improve your baby’s comfort and well-being. This ensures you stay connected and confident in your baby’s care, even when you’re resting or away, knowing that every important detail is communicated clearly.
