Welcome to Mommy’s Helper
where you receive consistent, compassionate, continuous care from pregnancy through postpartum
Your Birth & Your Postpartum, Your way
Whether you're planning for an unmedicated home birth or a hospital ("give me all the meds") birth, or anywhere in between, I'll support you emotionally, physically, and with evidence based information. Wondering whether to breastfeed or bottle feed? Is circumcision safe? With research and suggested readings, I'll help you make the best informed decisions for your family. You will receive help to create a plan based on what YOU value and put it to work.
Doulas are for Dads too
Dads are so important when it comes to birth. Even though I know birth, your partner knows you. When working together I find it important to get to know dad too. Your partner cares for you and baby, so it's important that I get to know them as well. Dads are so prepared to show you a brave face when it comes to birth but the truth is, they're uncertain too. Like with mom, I work with dad to address his concerns so that he feels prepared. Depending on their desired level of involvement, I teach your partner how to support you during birth so that they feel more confident, functional, and needed.
