I'm Ana. Also a Woman, a Wife, a Mother & a Doula.

My passion for postpartum care happened after the birth of my first daughter while we lived in China. I was truly impressed witnessing the care given to new mothers during this postpartum period, placing her at the heart of the family. This made me realize how much Mothers around the world need to be taken care of and to rebuild their village through presence and support.

 

Postpartum is a sacred period that requires a lot of rest, nourishment & physically healing, time to bond with the newborn baby, to adjust to the new family dynamics and to discover this newly Mother that has been born too.

 

My purpose as a Postpartum Doula is to offer that presence, support and welcome with my heart, ears and hands, so that these Women can thrive whether with their first or fourth baby, this will always be a new beginning, a step towards the unknown and a journey of growth towards Motherhood rite of passage.
