The role of a postpartum doula includes:

 ·      Supporting rest, personal care, and healing during the postpartum period (including baby care, light meal prep, baby related dishes/laundry, etc.)

·      Demonstrating and educating on newborn care (general infant care, sleep, soothing techniques, babywearing etc.) to help with the transition to motherhood

·      Offering education and tips on infant feeding (both breastfeeding and bottle feeding) As an IBCLC, I am able to offer advanced education in these areas.

·      Providing unbiased, evidence based information to help guide decision making

·      Answering “Is this normal…?” questions

·      Providing appropriate referrals, when indicated
