Quinn Doula Services
postpartum DOULA SERVICES
The postpartum period is such a delicate, special time. It requires downtime in order for the body to heal and for the mother and child to bond. As a postpartum doula, I work with families who are interested in modern attachment based parenting techniques and honoring The Fourth Trimester so they can heal both physically and mentally; while supporting baby's delicate transition into world from womb. By the end of our working contract, you will feel cared for, confident in your role and prepared to move forward.
I provide daytime support any day of the week. I also offer evening support and early morning support on a limited basis.
