Holistic Postpartum Support  

TENDER CARE FOR YOU AND YOUR NEW FAMILY

Nurturing Postpartum Doula Support for You and Baby

Welcoming a new baby is a time of immense joy, change, and adjustment. A postpartum doula provides compassionate, expert support to help you navigate birth recovery, newborn care, and the emotional transition into parenthood with confidence and ease. LUNA Birth & Wellness is here as your holistic postpartum doula to support your transition when your baby arrives home, through the fourth trimester.

My approach to postpartum support is centered around you growing in confidence and thriving as new parents as you transition with your new family member. Our postpartum visits are a time for you to slow down, breathe, and be cared for.

Each postpartum doula package below includes a Postpartum Planning session and Newborn Feeding Fundamentals session

  • Postpartum Roadmap

    This planning session travels through various postpartum terrains, taking time to map out what type of support is most nourishing for you and your needs, how I can best show up for you. We’ll walk through of your home to get oriented and set you up for success.

  • Newborn Feeding Fundamentals
    Whether you plan to feed by breast or bottle (or both), feeling informed and confident about nourishing your baby is essential. This session will be a one-one-on visit focused on education + understanding baby’s hunger cues, feeding positions, latch support, hand expression and creating a feeding plan. I am a doula trained and certified in lactation support and know when to refer clients to a lactation consultant or pediatric dentist, if needed.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


  • Meal prep sessions are generally between 3-4 hours. Lenore will be in your home, preparing the meals you have pre-selected. She will package and label the meals and date them so you know how long each item will remain fresh in your fridge.

  • This varies by family! Either you can provide recipes for Lenore to work from, or she will provide a menu in which you select 4 items to be prepared. The meal items range from breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack options. Meal items can be tailored to your family’s dietary preferences and restrictions.

  • Based on your menu item selections, Lenore will provide a grocery list in which you can acquire the ingredients prior to each session (delivery is a great option!), or Lenore can do the shopping for you for $50/hr. Ingredient costs are not covered and would be reimbursed to Lenore on the day of the session.

  • Generally one session per week is sufficient, as each of the 4 meal items prepared will yield 4-6 adult portions (enough for leftovers or to freeze). Additional meal items can be selected and added for $50 each. Please note that preparing additional meal items will add additional time to the meal prep session.
