Postpartum visits and beyond

PictureMe with one of my "doula babies" at 6 months of age and my youngest daughter, Layla.
As doulas we are honored with getting to know new families and watching them grow. We get to learn what they want and expect out of their births, and how they hope to achieve those goals. We get to know what their fears may be, we get to educate and inform them about anything they may be pondering. In a nutshell, we thrive on providing educational and emotional support before, during and after the birth, as well as physical support during labor.

Now back to the after part, that precious postpartum time. We meet with new families in their homes to reconnect after the labor that we all had a chance to experience together, once or twice, sometimes more if needed. Occasionally the connection remains well beyond that initial postpartum time, and especially now with social media, that has become an easier and easier reality. Not much delights me more than receiving a call from a past client asking if we could meet for coffee or a walk through the park, maybe even an invitation to their little ones first birthday. To all of you who I had the pleasure of serving in the past, and to those that will come my way in the future, I treasure you, each and every one. ~Kim
