Postpartum Offerings:
Virtual Postpartum Planning Session
2 hour virtual session. This will cover creating a postpartum care plan. It can include village building ideas, food recommendations for healing, creating a meal train, facilitating discussion about who will be allowed in your sacred space/setting boundaries when baby is born, what to expect during postpartum, and book recommendations for postpartum preparation.
1 week of texting support after arrival of baby.
Cost: $70.00
“The Going Back to work mom” Package
12 weeks maternity leave is not nearly enough. I have created “The Going Back To Work Mom" package out of my own experience going back to work full time at 12 weeks postpartum. It felt too early, too soon, I felt too raw and too foggy. I felt tender and like no one understood my mind was not on work. On top of going back to work, I was still breastfeeding my baby- so I needed to pump in between my appointments. I am here to hold your hand and hold space for your emotions as you navigate going back to work and figuring out your flow at home. These sessions/visits can be scheduled a few weeks prior to returning to work or sprinkled throughout returning to work and beyond. Should you continue to want support after the package has been fulfilled, the sessions/visits are scheduled individually in 3 hour increments.
This package includes:
4-2 hour sessions (virtual or in home visits)
Some ideas of what theses sessions could include are:
phone communication (Monday-Saturday 8AM-6PM.)
back to work processing and allowing space for all feelings.
warm meal cooked in your home and light housework to ease stress.
additionally any other service that I provide my typical home visits is also available upon request.
Included is a discount code for virtual lactation consultation with Jessica Wimer of Born and Fed. This will cover pumping, milk storage, bottling, scheduling, and how to maximize milk yield upon returning to work.
Package Cost: $400
Home Visits
Postpartum home visits are booked in 3 or 6 hour sessions. I understand the sacredness of allowing me into your home and space during such a tender, special, and emotional time. Each visit will be tailored to what you need in that moment. Some ideas of what a postpartum home visit could include are listed below.
birth processing.
herbal teas, snacks and healing meals cooked in the home.
grocery shopping.
knowledge and support around breastfeeding, pumping, bottle feeding, baby care, baby sleep, and baby wearing.
light housework, including, vacuuming, folding laundry, sanitizing breast pumps, and tidying up.
herbal baths and information about belly binding and self-massage.
telephone communication (Monday-Saturday 8AM-6PM).
access to a personally curated list of trusted local professionals (massage, lactation, chiropractic, mental health, etc.)
book library (birth, postpartum, lactation, etc.)
Hourly rate: $50
Virtual Birth Processing Session
Virtual Birth Processing is a 2 hour session. These are booked after birth. I will listen to you as you share the story of birthing your baby or babies. I will hold space for all of the emotions you are feeling. It can be very healing to give narrative to your birth story and have a time to get everything out without trying to fix or change, but to simply listen. I am here to provide a safe and loving space for you.
At the close of our session, I will provide a grounding exercise to bring you back into your body.
Cost: $70 (2 hour virtual session)
