The early days and weeks with a new baby, also known as the fourth trimester, are a time of transformation - filled with precious moments, but also challenges that can feel overwhelming. With the traditional ‘village’ of support often missing in today’s world, a postnatal doula can offer invaluable practical, emotional, and informational support to help navigate this new stage of life.
This gift voucher provides dedicated one-on-one time with an experienced postnatal doula, available in three options: 2 hours, 5 hours, or 10 hours. When redeeming the voucher, the recipient will arrange with the doula how their hours will be used - whether in a single session or spread over multiple visits - ensuring support that meets their unique needs.
Each family's needs are different, and the time can be used however is most helpful. A postnatal doula can offer support in many ways, from providing reassurance about newborn care and feeding to preparing meals, helping around the house, or caring for the baby while parents rest. Some may prefer practical help like folding laundry and preparing snacks, while others may simply want the doula to take the baby for a walk so they can shower and reset. The flexibility of this service allows the recipient to decide what will make the most difference to them.
What's included:
- A gift voucher for 2, 5, or 10 hours of postnatal doula support, depending on the selected option
- Time with an experienced postnatal doula, used in a way that best suits the recipient’s needs
- Sessions arranged in advance to fit the recipient’s schedule, either in one block or across multiple visits
- A discussion with the doula upon redemption to plan how the hours will be used
- Support provided in the recipient’s home or another agreed location
The exact schedule of the sessions will be arranged upon redemption, ensuring the support fits each family's circumstances. Redemption will be subject to the doula's availability/lead times.
