Support Services | Doula Sue

I am here to make your postpartum journey smoother and more enjoyable. Your well-being is my priority, and I'm dedicated to helping you embrace this precious time with confidence and ease.
Let's make your postpartum experience as wonderful as it should be.

As a postpartum doula, I offer a range of personalised services to meet your unique needs, by providing customizable hours to suit your needs.

Maternal care

I am experienced in supporting you in your postpartum journey, making sure you are comfortable both physically and emotionally, and can offer physical support if you have had a C Section. I am here to aid in your recuperation. I can watch your baby while you rest, providing you with the essential breaks you need for self-care, shower, sleep and nourishment, making sure you stay hydrated and comfortable. I can connect you with valuable community resources like Lactation Consultants, Pelvic Floor Therapists, and Mental Health Professionals for your holistic well being.

Newborn care

Arriving home from the hospital with your new baby can be overwhelming. I am here to help you, and ease your anxieties with newborn care. I can change diapers, help feed, hold your baby, discuss baby care like how to bathe your baby, cord care, swaddling, sleep, and help you gain confidence and bond with your new baby.

Feeding

Whatever method you choose to feed your baby, I am here to support you. I can provide expert guidance on breastfeeding, pumping or alternative methods of feeding. I have experience helping you with latch, positioning and am here to answer questions you may have: is baby getting enough milk, how long to feed, and ensuring you and your baby is comfortable and well nourished.

General help

Rest is very important for you as your body recovers both physically and mentally. I can help with light household duties like dishes, tidying up, laundry and pet care. I can prepare light meals, healthy snacks, play and entertain other siblings, or watch your new baby while you spend quality one-on-one time with other siblings. I will assist your family in learning effective soothing and bonding techniques with your new baby.
