I always try and help new parents in whatever manner will provide the most nervous system regulation. A majority of the time, this involves caring for their newborn while they recupe some sleep - often in the form of contact napping baby. However, this might also come in the form of offering my vast knowledge of babies; listening to a parent debrief their birth experience or vent about how tiring newborn care can be; maybe I fold some laundry or do some dinner prep while a nursing parents focuses on their LO without the stress of needing to get a meal ready for siblings; I personally also might offer a little stretching or mobility sequence to help relieve some tense muscles. Think of me as your village wise-woman who is here to serve you in the way that best suits you.

• Yes, I know how to konmari fold all your clothes ;)

• I’m a pro at cloth diaper stuffing and organizing

• Sterilizing bottles is my jam

YES! In Quebec, doula care is considered naturopathy. No insurance providers cover doula care specifically, but many cover naturopathy. I am a registered member of the Académie des naturopathes et naturothérapeutes du Canada (ACNN) and so you might be able to offset some of the cost of my services by claiming this expense.

Please check out MotherWit Doula Care's packages. We have 3-, 6-, and 12-hour packages available, which can be broken into 3-6 hour increments. Currently, I only offer daytime support. After we exchange a few emails or have a quick call to meet and you’ve decided you’d like to purchase a package from me, you’ll receive a code from my online system, which allows you to book directly into my calendar and deduct these hours from the purchased package. Many of my clients appreciate the ability to book a session with me at all hours without worrying that it’s a bad time to text ;) IF this seems like a hassle, no pressure. The booking system is one option, but you can always email or text me too.
