Thank you for checking out my small business! I am dedicated to providing growing families with holistic & flexible postpartum care.
Serenity Night Doula Services has become a tight-knit team of Postpartum Doulas and Newborn Care Specialists, serving families in San Francisco, and across the Bay Area. Our primary mission is to help relieve some of the stress that can be associated with the newborn stage, and we’re honored to be a part of those early weeks.
If you are interested in booking, or are curious to learn more about what we do, please reach out to me for a free consultation!
WHAT IS A POSTPARTUM DOULA?
“Postpartum Doulas provide families with information and support on infant feeding, emotional and physical recovery from childbirth, infant soothing, and coping skills for new parents.” -from Postpartum Support International
As a certified Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula, my primary role is to help bring calm and peace of mind to your family during the first few months after birth (AKA the "4th trimester"). I specialize in awake, overnight support: tending to all of your newborn’s needs throughout the night, so that you can get that much-needed rest—while knowing your little one is attentively cared for while you recharge.
Aside from feeding, burping, changing and soothing your newborn while you rest… There are countless ways in which doulas like myself and my team can support individual families, such as coaching new parents with soothing and swaddling techniques, or attending to newborn bathing and hygiene. By keeping track of baby’s sleeping and feeding patterns, we work to establish healthy routines. We are there to guide new parents on their lactation journey, and/or to help introduce bottles. To help the home run smoothly, we’ll handle daily baby-related tasks such as washing/sanitizing bottles and pump machine parts, and can assist with household duties such as laundry, tidying the nursery and kitchen, or prepping meals. We can provide care for siblings; and, of course, postpartum emotional support.
