Postpartum doula support designed for you
If you're looking for support and care centered around you, your little one, and your family, my postpartum doula services in Fairfield and Westchester County were created just for you.
Maternity Leave
Few periods in life are as intense as the transition into motherhood. Your baby is your first thought - they need to be comforted, soothed, and acclimated to the world around them. It can be easy to forget that you, too, need time and space to acclimate to your new body, world, and life.
The physical and emotional care needed during this time can also be complicated by more mundane needs. Your laundry needs to be done, the family needs to eat, and showers eventually become necessary. None of these are as important as caring for yourself and your baby, but it can be easy to feel pressured to get back into the swing of daily life.
Postpartum Doulas can help!
Postpartum doulas take a holistic approach. Meaning, we provide whatever help you crave in the moment. Labor, delivery, and postpartum are full of the unpredictable, so we surround you with a supportive network to take care of everything - from your emotional wellbeing to your laundry pile.
Postpartum Doula Support
I provide in-home postpartum doula support to families in the Fairfield and Westchester County areas for the first 12 weeks after your baby is born.
Postpartum doula services include:
- One prenatal visit to create a plan for support
- Education + evidence-based information on recovery, newborn care, and feeding
- Light meal preparation so you stay hydrated and nourished

She is loving, nurturing, patient, incredibly knowledgeable, professional and experienced.
Veronica worked with and supported our family for four months after the birth of our son. She was wonderful - helping with all things relating to our son's sleep, eating and development. She helped me as I recovered and learned to balance being a mom to our baby and our other children. She helped play and care for our baby's big sisters (who adore her), helped with household tasks and light chores around our house and meal prep. She always allowed me to sleep at night knowing our baby was in loving, capable hands and her care. She brings a sense of calm and positivity as soon as she enters your house, even during the busiest times of day. She is loving, nurturing, patient, incredibly knowledgeable, professional and experienced. Any family would be lucky to have her help support them after the birth of a baby!
