I provide in-home postpartum doula services in the Pittsburgh, PA area. Families typically schedule 2-3 days per week, between 4-6 hours per visit, for the first 1-3 months.
My aim is to help ease your transition into parenthood or adding another member to your family. Some of the ways I help are:
- give you time and opportunity to rest, shower, and have alone time
- cook meals and snacks for you and your family
- help keep the house and home in order with light housekeeping
- teach you how to soothe a fussy baby
- help you understand feeding your baby
- answer questions about infant care like swaddling, bathing, diapering
- provide companionship and emotional support during a time that has a high risk for developing mood disorders
- refer and connect you to other professionals as needed
Many families are able to claim the cost using their Health Saving Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA), making it tax-free.
If your employee benefits include Carrot, Progyny, or other fertility benefit plans, my certification meets their requirements and you will be able to be reimbursed for my services.
