I'm so honored to hear from clients like Amber, who found that prioritizing their own nourishment made all the difference in their postpartum journey. Hearing her kind words truly fills my cup.

Nourishing yourself after birth is not just a luxury, it's essential. Let's talk about what I can do for your family!

Part of the beauty of traditional Bengkung belly binding is the ritual and intention behind every step, even before the binding begins. For centuries, the fabric has been hand-dyed with natural ingredients, imbuing it with a unique meaning and a special connection to the earth.

The beautiful pink hue of this belly bind comes from natural dyes, often sourced from the seeds, peels, or rinds of foods. This isn't just a practical step; the process of preparing the dye, dipping the long cloth, and watching it transform is a meditative practice in itself. It’s a way to infuse the binding with warmth and a sense of sacredness before it ever touches your body.

This tradition reminds us that postpartum healing is more than a physical process, but a time to honor your body's incredible journey and reconnect with ancient wisdom.

Would you be interested in learning about the different ways to wrap the belly bind? Let me know in the comments below or send me a message!

Fall is the perfect time to ground yourself through food, comfort, and routine! While you're out apple picking or hitting the farmers market, be sure to grab:

🧡 Butternut squash
🧡 Local honey
🧡 Fresh apples
🧡 Warming spices like cinnamon, turmeric, and pumpkin pie spice

Creating a simple meal plan or prepping just one or two meals ahead can help you get back into a routine and reduce stress as the days grow shorter.

If that still feels like too much, I'd love to help. Feel free to explore my services or reach out with any questions. I'm here for you!

One minute you're soaking up every precious moment, the next you're staring at a mountain of laundry, feeling overwhelmed by spit-up stains and tiny socks. I know those little messes can feel like a major hurdle when you're running on hardly any sleep.

You deserve to have a moment to yourself, to take a warm shower, drink your coffee while it's still hot, or simply sit without holding anything. That's why I'm here. I want to help lighten your load, both literally and figuratively. In addition to caring for you and your little one, I'll help with light chores like the laundry, dishes, or whatever else you need so you can focus on yourself and bonding with baby.

Want postpartum personal chef services but your kitchen is a mess? Don’t worry about the state of your kitchen!

I never judge. I’ve cooked in tiny New York and Boston apartments without any problems. All I ask is you provide a clear counter area and an empty sink and I'm golden. 💛

The early days of motherhood are a beautiful blur of firsts, not to mention a lot of unknowns. It's a time when you need to be held, too.

As your postpartum doula, my greatest joy is providing the warm, knowledgeable support that helps you feel confident and cared for. I’m here to help you settle in with your new baby, establish healthy rhythms, and get the rest you need so you can focus on what matters most: connecting with your newborn.

Let me take care of the details so you we take care of you!

Postpartum is a whirlwind of emotions. One minute you're bursting with love for your new baby, and the next you're completely exhausted, feeling disconnected, and maybe even a little guilty for not having it figured out. This mix of excitement, worry, and doubt is completely normal, and much more common than we're often led to believe.⁠

No matter what your postpartum journey looks like, having a strong support system is paramount. Maybe that support is your family, a partner, or a friend. But sometimes, what you really need is someone who can provide a different kind of help: a nonjudgmental hand to hold your baby so you can finally get some sleep, a listening ear to process your emotions, or just someone to make sure you've eaten a meal.⁠

That's where I come in. I am here to support you through the beautiful and challenging moments of new parenthood. My greatest joy is watching a new mom find her footing, start to trust herself, and realize that it's more than okay to ask for help; it's essential. We're not meant to do this alone.⁠

Who was a part of your support system? I'd love to hear about the person who helped you when you needed it most.

I know how challenging it can be to create a peaceful start to the day when you're navigating sleep deprivation, recovery, and the constant needs of a new little one. From rushed breakfasts to trying to grab a moment for yourself, mornings can feel anything but slow.

One of my goals is to support you not just in the first few days after birth, but deeply through the entire postpartum period. If you're longing for a bit more calm and slowness in your mornings, I'm here to help explore ways to make that a reality. Sometimes just a few small shifts can make a huge difference in how you feel as the day begins.

What's one thing that helps you feel even a tiny bit more prepared or relaxed in the morning as a new parent? Share below – I'd love to hear them!

Most people think the placenta's job ends at delivery. But what if I told you this incredible organ is just getting started on its postpartum mission? It's true! Your placenta holds surprising benefits that can profoundly impact your recovery journey.

Healing & Balance: It produces hormones essential for your uterus to heal, for successful milk production, and to help stabilize your emotions.⁠

Ongoing Nourishment: It delivers important nutrients to both you and your baby, particularly as you establish your breastfeeding rhythm.⁠

Body Cleansing: It assists your body in effectively removing waste products, helping you feel better faster.⁠

If you're looking for ways to support your postpartum recovery, I can share more about placental encapsulation and other methods to utilize your placenta's natural advantages. Let me know if you'd like to learn more!
