* Postpartum doulas are not childcare providers. While I am happy to support parent rest/self-care by spending time with baby/siblings, the majority of my time will be spent supporting the birthing person/parents. I do have recommendations for childcare providers if you need that service.

Baby items are important and necessary.
And, parents are often made to feel that a baby item can be a "solution” to postpartum challenges. The reality is birthing people, parents, and families need strong in-person support in order to have the healthiest postpartum period.
