Is everyone telling you to "Enjoy Every Moment"?

Does everyone tell you this? Are you quarantining with your baby, trying to enjoy every moment? Or are you stressed, trying to fit work into a very demanding new situation with a baby or twins?

This is not the most precious time of your life if you can't sleep. If you are anxious, depressed, or just overwhelmed with new parenthood. Babies are precious--no question! But this time can be hard, isolating, and unsettling. Covid 19 has shaken the world...the reality that you brought your baby into. We get it.

We want you to make memories of the most precious kind. And to that goal, we provide things that sustain you through this timing. Sleep. Breast or bottle feeding support. Meals for parents. Laundry help. Ideas for problem solving. Well trained arms that know what to do when you don't know what to ask for. Hearts tuned to your needs, not their own. Judgment-free support. And eyes trained to know what to look for when things are going a place you don't want to be.

Call a doula. We have been busy virtually training postpartum doulas all over the US and Canada to be available to serve even during this uncertain time. Doulas know what to do. How to help. They don't need to be asked to do each thing (they will guess!). They just need to be invited to help.
