Motherline Postpartum Care

The fourth trimester is not merely a recovery period but a sacred window of opportunity to profoundly restore a mother's health and vitality for the next 40 years of her life.

My Support

My devotion to postpartum care begins with my passion to nurture birthing people and their children so they may walk through this precious time feeling fully held, nourished & witnessed. So that they may be in their sweet rest now, and that this nourishment carries on throughout their lives, giving their newborn the gift of a steady foundation and a calm nervous system to grow from, and giving mother the space and support to tune into their own intuition.

As a postpartum doula, I offer a nurturing presence during the tender and transformative time after birth, honoring the profound shifts occurring within your family. My goal is to support the new mother with both practical assistance and deep emotional care, fostering a serene environment for their healing and bonding with this new life.

My offerings include hands-on newborn care, where I provide gentle guidance with feeding, comforting techniques, and understanding your baby's unique cues. I prepare nourishing meals and herbal teas that replenish your body, and handle light household tasks, allowing you to rest and focus on your recovery. I can also help organize your home to create a more functional and peaceful space.

Beyond these tangible acts, I hold space for your emotional and intuitive journey. I listen with an open heart as you process your birth experience, navigate new identities, and connect with your inner wisdom as a parent. I offer reassurance and a calming presence, helping you to find your rhythm and cultivate confidence during this sacred period of adjustment.

Ultimately, I walk alongside your family, empowering you to embrace the beautiful, sometimes challenging, unfolding of new parenthood with grace and confidence. I'm here to help ensure you feel seen, supported, and gently guided as you bond with your baby and settle into your new family dynamic.

In 2025 I completed a Postpartum Doula Certification course through Natural Resources in San Francisco, a 4 month Ayurvedic Postpartum Doula Certification course with Katia Winter of Womb Ways here in Santa Cruz, and Innate Tradition’s Physiological Baby Care Course. With this wealth of womb wisdom, I weave ancient wisdom with modern practices in how to best support birthing people.

Our time together is completely personalized to what you and your baby need on that day and in that moment. In Ayurvedic wisdom, they say “42 days for 42 years. Those first 42 days after giving birth are an especially sacred and vulnerable time. The care received in that window can influence a mother’s mental and physical health for many years to come. There is a shift happening in our culture, a remembering that this support is truly important.

How it works

I am available for 3-4 hour shifts, 2-3 times per week during the entirety of your fourth trimester. The first 6 weeks are the most crucial to your healing, but postpartum doesn’t stop there.
