Newborn Care Specialist or Postpartum Doula?

Postpartum doulas provide essential support to new parents during the transition into parenthood. They offer assistance with infant care, emotional support, and guidance on breastfeeding and postpartum recovery. By helping families adjust to their new routines, postpartum doulas aim to promote well-being and confidence as parents navigate this beautiful yet challenging time. While the baby will always be cared for, the birthing person is the priority for the postpartum doula.

A newborn care specialist supports new parents by offering guidance and more hands-on infant care, including feeding, diapering, and sleep routines. They educate parents on newborn development and safety, helping families bond and thrive during this important transition. Newborn care specialists can typically provide care for parents for the first-year of life.
