The details …
Ten Hours or Five Postpartum Visits in your home -
(each visit will be two hours long or more on request).
Emotional Support
Becoming a mother is transformative!
During these visits I will help you understand the ways you have transitioned physiologically, hormonally and emotionally and nurture you as you navigate your way through these changes.
You can be sure of an empathic listening ear when you need to debrief, chat or cry, and a reassuring safe presence to facilitate your confidence in your parenting.
Physical Support
As a qualified and skilled Remedial Massage Therapist, I am able to bring my massage table to your home and give you a therapeutic massage.
In addition, I offer Postpartum Belly Binding, a traditional cultural practice to ‘wrap the mother as you do the baby’.
This practice may assist in involution (contraction) of the uterus, bringing organs and structures together, including abdominal separation and supporting posture to minimise back, pelvic and abdominal pain.
Practical Support
I will prepare and arrive carrying a home-cooked meal with emphasis on your Postpartum needs and leave it in your fridge, with some tea & lactation cookies.
I can take care of light household chores such as tidying up the kitchen, making beds with fresh linen and folding laundry.
I can sit with, or guide, you, when you are feeding, bathing or settling your baby, and help you understand your baby’s cycle, body language and behavioural cues.
As a certified Baby Massage Instructor, I can teach you when and how to do baby massage.
Informational Support
Please be aware that you don’t need information overload at this time, the intention for any information provided is to build confidence in your own parenting style and to reinforce your own innate wisdom as your ‘baby’s expert’!
I can, however, offer tools and guidance to support your baby’s breastfeeding, sleep, settling and daily routines.
If you need additional support from an expert, I have a tool kit that provides a comprehensive list of services, resources, classes & treatments available in your local area. I have done the research for you, so you can focus on your own physical & emotional health and bonding with your newborn.
