Do you feel called to help support new parents, babies, and families in the early weeks and months?

While this can be a tender and joyful time, it is also a period of tremendous transition and adjustment for everyone involved.

New parents are often surprised at how much their days and nights overflow with caring for the baby, and support from beyond the family is often called for.



What do they do?

Postpartum Doulas ease the way during the tender early weeks and months, providing infant care, supporting healthy physical and emotional transition, offering baby feeding guidance and practical household support. They are not only for parents dealing with postpartum depression; in fact most families who hire a postpartum doula are not experiencing PPD.


Most Postpartum Doulas are self-employed, and enjoy the flexibility & independence of having their own small business. Hourly rates in Western Mass commonly range between $25 to $50 per hour. Some postpartum doulas offer overnight care, earning $30-$60+/hour.
