The time after birth is a profound period of transition for both body and family. As you recover from pregnancy and birth while caring for a newborn, it is natural to need steady support, nourishment, and reassurance.
As a postpartum doula, I offer compassionate physical, emotional, and practical care to help ease this adjustment. I support your body’s recovery, your transition into nursing and parenting, and the overall wellbeing of your household so that you can focus on bonding with your baby.
In many traditions, the weeks following birth are considered the “fourth trimester,” a sacred window of healing and integration. During this time the body undergoes deep repair, hormones shift, and emotions can be tender and heightened. With attentive care and guidance, this period can be one of grounding, confidence, and connection rather than overwhelm.
I bring over two decades of experience supporting families during this precious stage of life. Drawing from my background as an Acharya and my Satvic approach to care, I offer gentle practices and guidance rooted in yoga wisdom to help restore balance and vitality after birth.
Every family’s needs are unique. I offer flexible, personalized support so that your postpartum experience feels held, nurtured, and as smooth as possible for everyone — especially for you as mother.
