Thank you for the kind words! It was great getting to know more about E320 Chiropractic and their mission to support families!

April’s Doula Services can be described in one word – advocates. Whether you’re a first-time mom or a mom of multiples, it’s no secret that the journey is made easier when you have a solid support system. April’s team of doulas is passionate about being birth advocates for women in Upstate SC✨, and we had the pleasure of meeting with owner April McMaster to hear all about it!

April and her team pride themselves on personalizing care based on your personality and preferences. Would you like someone to attend doctor’s appointments with you to translate doctor-speak? Is having someone present overnight to assist you with feedings sound helpful to you? There are so many ways that this passionate team of experienced doulas can support you throughout your pregnancy🤰that there’s no way we can list them all here!

Make sure to check out their website - we're certain you'll be as impressed by them as we are✨!

You just handed your baby to a doula and... now what? 💤💗

Your first overnight with a doula is ALL about rest, reassurance, and support. Here’s what *really* happens:

✨ You get uninterrupted sleep while your doula lovingly tends to your little one : feeding, soothing, changing, and tracking it all.
✨ Wake up to a gentle update and a warm cup of encouragement.
✨ Need help with feeding tips or calming a fussy newborn? We’re there, not just for baby, but for YOU too.

You’re not “missing out": you’re getting the rest you deserve (and a sanity boost!).

You’ve probably heard the saying, “It takes a village.” But what does that village actually look like in the postpartum days?

Family and friends are your cheerleaders, comforters, and bringers of casseroles. But sometimes, even they need support (and a nap!). That’s where your doula steps in: offering practical help, emotional care, and up-to-date expertise, without judgment or pressure.

When doulas join your village, everyone wins. You get extra hands, reassurance, and someone who listens when you need to vent or need solidarity. Your loved ones get the freedom to simply *enjoy* time with you and baby.

Curious what this could look like for you? Only TWO spots left for DECEMBER! 💕 Tap to connect or DM!

Ever wonder what *actually* happens during your first overnight with a postpartum doula? Think less “stranger in the house” and more “teammate in your village.” ✨

Here’s what to expect:
• You get to REST! We’ll care for your little one so you can actually sleep (yes, it’s possible).
• Middle-of-the-night feedings? We’ll support you or handle bottles while you recharge.
• Judgment-free support: We’re here to answer questions, encourage you, or just let you breathe.
• Cozy, calming vibes: no stress, just reassurance and real talk.

There’s no gold star for doing it alone. Need a night off? You deserve it.

Curious? What would YOU want most from an overnight doula? 💭👇
