Postpartum support

Postpartum care is designed to nurture a person after birth, acknowledging the physical, emotional and spiritual shifts that unfold. As a doula, I provide you with an opportunity to receive support whilst finding your feet with a newborn and new family dynamic.

As the saying goes ‘postpartum is forever’. Each season of motherhood brings its own learnings and challenges and along with the varying transitions of life, sometimes the care of a doula is much needed to help guide and support us through. Extended care is available at any point of your mothering journey, whether it be in the first year of your babies life or well into the toddler years and beyond.

To honour a mother throughout the fourth trimester and beyond, postpartum sessions can include:

  • emotional support & non-judgemental listening

  • birth debrief

  • breastfeeding guidance

  • focus on rest and nurturing practices

  • setting up a meal train for family and friends

  • taking care of your newborn and older children

  • information based on leading evidence

  • supported referrals to specialist health professionals

  • tidying and basic household duties

  • preparing and cooking meals or snacks

  • support attending appointments & running errands

Support options

Book an exploration call.

We start by getting to know each other, connecting by phone or online to discuss your postpartum care - what you’re wanting and looking for. This discussion will support you to decide whether I’m the right doula for you. This is a complimentary 30min chat - no obligation.

Reflective Practice

Reflective Practice offers an opportunity to explore the relationship between your personal experience and professional practice.

“Imren arrived with the most calming, nurturing energy. She held space for everything I was carrying—exhaustion, emotions, questions, the juggle of caring for a newborn while trying to show up for my older child too. She didn’t just “help out”—she cared. She mothered me so that I could mother my babies.

From nourishing meals and emotional support, to gentle guidance and her warm, intuitive presence, Imren made those early weeks feel softer, steadier, and far less lonely. I felt held, seen, and supported in a way I didn’t even know I needed.”
