The postpartum period is a time of transition, learning, growing, loving and, sometimes frustration. My goal is to help families find their way through this challenging time in their own way. I help with practical household issues — dishes, cooking, light cleaning etc., and with baby care, recovery, and breastfeeding.

I assist families according to their priorities each day with rest and recovery time; breastfeeding support and infant care; light housework, errands, and cooking; sleep strategies; sibling adjustment; and supporting and including partners.
