San Jose is a modern forward-thinking city with a rich traditional history. The “capital of silicon valley” has been a place for people to gather and raise their families since well before the arrival of the Spanish explorers. Today, San Jose is known as being one of the safest, cleanest big cities in America. The combination of economic opportunities and the beauty of its parks continue to make San Jose an attractive place to start a family. 


Silicon Valley may be world-famous for its technological advances, but there is nothing more amazing and natural than having a child.

Change can be challenging,
even when it is a positive change.


When you are expecting a child, you may feel excited and unsure at the same time. You may feel ready one day and unprepared the next. Everyone you know, from your relatives to the neighbor you've never spoken to before will offer advice on how to deal with a new baby. You may have read all the books and done all the classes and still feel like you need some extra support.


Feeling uncertainty during this transitional time is normal. While there may be similarities, each pregnancy, and each postpartum experience is unique. Even with the same family, one baby may be different from the next. Your friend or co- worker may have made motherhood look like a breeze, but you may be struggling. Remember, everyone tries to put their best foot forward, so it may be that they have hidden their personal struggles.

 Postpartum Doula Support

Welcoming a new baby is one of the most gratifying but difficult things that you will ever do. They say it takes a village to raise a child, and in the past, close-knit communities did make things easier for new mothers. That doesn't mean you are on your own. A doula service can assist you to grow into your role as a new parent.


Many people are familiar with the role of a doula in supporting a mother through pregnancy and birth. However, did you know that doulas can also play a role in postpartum care?


Postpartum, care is important for both mother and child. However, the World Health Organization has reported that the postpartum period receives less attention from health-care professionals that the prenatal and childbirth periods. This is a time when a doula can help fill this gap in support of a new mother.


A postpartum doula is a trained professional

that can help you navigate through issues with:

Breastfeeding

Sleeping

Feeding

Swaddling

Diapering

Bathing

A doula's role is to help support and empower you through the time leading up to delivery, birth, and the postpartum period as you grow familiar with your role as a new parent. This extra support can help you to adjust and feel confident with your new responsibilities.
