Nest supports parents by following their lead. We share information and ideas, while the client makes the decisions. We listen, and are here to support you in a non-judgmental and confidential manner. Our aim is to help you rest, catch up, and move forward.
We offer:
- Postpartum doula care as defined by DONA International’s standards and scope of practice. Doulas offer emotional support and evidence based information about breastfeeding, infant care, and the transition of the postpartum period. We can also help you meet your needs for sleep, nourishment, and a tidy home while you focus on your family.
- Overnight care; supporting the night time routine with parents included. If baby is a night owl we can help with diapers, soothing, or facilitate feedings so parents can rest.
- Appropriate referrals to the best of our ability should your needs go beyond the scope of our practice or training.
We do not offer:
- Medical care of any kind, lactation consulting, or counseling/therapy.
- Heavy house work; such as bathrooms, yard work, cleaning cupboards or windows, moving furniture, etc.
- Chauffeuring services
- A guarantee of a full night sleep, a calm baby, a perfect home, or no stress. We simply do our best by offering an open heart, an extra set of hands, and someone neutral to talk to.
