When new parents bring their baby home, they can quickly become exhausted and overwhelmed. Many new parents don’t live near family who can help. A postpartum doula brings relief to new families by providing practical, emotional, and informational support.

Postpartum doula services include infant care, breastfeeding support, household help, sibling care, and more. Studies have shown that women with sufficient postpartum help are much less likely to suffer from postpartum depression.

Postpartum Family Care, a doula and consulting service that serves the greater Sacramento area, is now available to help out families. A Free Prenatal Consultation will outline expected postpartum needs. Call (530) 758-5958 or email: melaniebowden@earthlink.net for more information on postpartum care.
