what to expect
As a new parent, you can expect support in various areas, including techniques for post-birth recovery and self-comfort, assistance with breastfeeding and bottle feeding, guidance on infant bathing and diapering, help with chores such as laundry and dishes, meal preparation, light housekeeping, sibling care, family support, and household management. I also provide specialized care for premature infants, multiples, and compassionate support for those experiencing postpartum mood disorders.
Postpartum care should be accessible to every new family. Reduced rates may be available for clients facing financial difficulties; feel free to inquire about this option. If you’re interested in scheduling postpartum care, please contact me, and I will respond to your inquiry within 24 hours via phone or email.
“Cella was the greatest gift to us in the postpartum period. I can’t articulate how much we adore her. She helped us out after the birth of our third child. We had never had a postpartum doula before and now I recommend it to everyone I know having a child, whether it’s your first or not. She is warm, knowledgeable, and supremely helpful. She has the incredible skill of seeing exactly what needs to happen for things to flow smoothly and jumping in to do that thing. (No small feat in a home with three kids under 5!) Sometimes that was rocking the baby, sometimes it was playing with one of the bigger kids or helping them brush teeth, sometimes it was dishes or laundry.
Her instincts are unfailing and her communication excellent. Above all, I am deeply grateful for her openness and warmth of spirit. It was an emotional, often challenging time for our family, and Cella held space for all of it with love and understanding. She is an absolute gem.”
