Prenatal “Nesting” Services
In addition to expert postpartum doula care, I provide specialized prenatal nesting services tailored for the final trimester of pregnancy. The weeks before your baby’s birth are an exciting yet often overwhelming period filled with preparation and anticipation. Managing physical pregnancy discomforts, fatigue, and numerous tasks can feel daunting. That’s where my prenatal support services come in to help.
Whether you are facing a high-risk pregnancy, dealing with complications, feeling emotionally drained, or simply seeking extra support, my experienced and calming presence can make a significant difference. These prenatal nesting services are designed to lighten your workload, enhance your readiness for childbirth, and allow you valuable rest—yes, that includes putting your swollen feet up!
Additionally, this prenatal period is an ideal time to establish a trusting relationship between you and your postpartum doula. Building this connection well before your baby’s arrival helps ensure a smoother transition and more personalized support when the newborn comes home.
