Night Postpartum Doula Support

Postpartum Doulas

As a postpartum night doula, I provide nighttime support to new families, helping with feedings and diaper changes and soothing the baby so parents can rest. I offer emotional support, lactation support, newborn guidance, postpartum recovery guidance, and light household tasks related to baby care. My goal is to ensure a smooth transition into parenthood, allowing parents to recover and bond confidently with their babies.

My hourly rate is $60.00/hour for singletons and $70.00/hour for multiples

About Mabuhay Doula Co.

Bio

My journey began as the third eldest of eight in a bustling, diverse household (Filipina immigrant mama and American dad with Chinese, European, and Spanish roots), where I naturally became my mother’s helper. This early immersion in childcare instilled a profound comfort around infants and children. Today, I draw on this foundation to provide families with compassionate, responsive care that prioritizes both parents' and babies' emotional and physical well-being.
