Postpartum doula services are $25.00 - $35.00 per hour. Because I am a homeschooling mother of five, my postpartum services are limited. Please call to find out available days/times for my services. I can help you out for a few hours a day, to give you a break (Trust me, sleep can be a fleeting and precious thing with a new baby!) and I can help you with daily tasks around the house, run errands, or give you a hand establishing breastfeeding and learning baby care. I do not charge for phone consultations or for the postpartum visit for my Labour Doula clients. If I can not help you with your postpartum needs, I will do my best to help you find another postpartum doula who can.
