Services
At WNY Doula, we offer comprehensive care and support for moms and babies, allowing parents to get much-needed rest.
Services are explained in more detail below.
Newborn Overnight Care in Your Home
A typical overnight begins with a 15 minute consultation on your family's needs. Then mom and dad can head off to bed for a restful night's sleep...and we do the rest! Our doulas will care for your baby overnight in your home while you sleep, uninterrupted. If you are breastfeeding, we will bring baby to you and take baby back for burping, changing and settling, or you may choose to pump and leave milk for us. (A little tip - the more sleep you can get, the more breastmilk you can produce!) And, we offer expert assistance with breastfeeding. We of course do formula feeding as well. We have experience caring for newborns and keeping the house as quiet as possible so that you can get sleep. An overnight shift is typically 8-10 hours.
Daytime Doula Services - Including Light Housekeeping & Sibling Care
During the day, things look a little different! WNY Doula offers daytime doula services that can look like babysitting, household assistance, help with the kids outside the home - and more. We'll work with you on a personalized plan that makes the most sense for your family. We're happy to offer care services for your new baby and their siblings as well in the daytime. A daytime shift can also include light housekeeping to help you keep your home clean more effortlessly as you navigate adding a new baby to your family. A daytime shift is typically 4 hours.
