Postnatal Support
Nurturing support for you, while you care for your baby.
The weeks and months after welcoming your baby can be beautiful, emotional, exhausting and everything in between.
My Postnatal Support service provides practical, non-medical support in the comfort of your home from birth to 6 months postpartum. Offered to families within 25kms of Caloundra.
An extra pair of hands when you need it most
There isn't one right way to use your Postnatal support session. Some days you might need practical help around the house. Other days, what you need most might be someone you trust to hold your baby while you rest or reset.
Your session is tailored around what would support you most that day.
Sometimes, it's the little things
A hot shower.
Eating lunch while it's still warm.
Putting your feet up without looking at the pile of washing.
Having someone there with your baby while you wash your hair.
Having support that is there just for you.
Postnatal Support doesn't have to mean you're struggling. Sometimes it simply means recognising that you weren't meant to do everything alone.
While I take care of some of the little things, you have more space to rest, recover, bond with your baby and adjust to your new rhytum as a family.
Meet your support worker
Hi, I'm Laura, founder of Coastal Birth & Nourish Co.
Supporting women through pregnancy, birth preparation and the postnatal period is at the heart of what I do.
I'm also a mum myself, so I understand firsthand just how beautiful, overwhelming and all-consuming those early days of motherhood can be. I know how much of a difference it can make to have someone there to lend a hand, put on a load of washing or simply give you the space to shower, eat and feel like yourself for a moment.
I'm a Hypnobirthing Australia™ Practitioner Childbirth Educator, Pregnancy Massage Practitioner and NDIS Support Worker, and I'm soon to be undertaking further study in doula support.
Let’s chat before you book
Choosing support after birth is personal, and I want you to feel comfortable with who you welcome into your home. If you’d like a phone conversation before booking postnatal support, please email me to arrange a time. We can chat about your needs, answer any questions and explore how I can support you.
