Types of Postpartum Care Services That Can Help

Lactation Consultants
Want to learn more about breastfeeding prior to giving birth or currently struggling with breastfeeding? Lactation consultants are experts in helping you overcome challenges, ensuring both you and your baby can breastfeed comfortably and effectively. Many lactation professional services are now covered under major insurance plans.
Therapists
Pregnancy and postpartum can be an emotional rollercoaster. Therapists and counsellors specialize in helping new mothers cope with anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges during this vulnerable period. Our app can help you choose the right type of professional for your unique needs.
Postpartum Psychiatrists
For those needing medical intervention, psychiatrists can provide valuable mental health support through medication and therapy, ensuring you receive comprehensive care. Psychiatrists often work hand-in-hand with your therapist or primary care provider.
Physical Therapists
Pregnancy and childbirth can take a toll on your body. Physical therapists help you recover physically, offering exercises and treatments to regain strength and mobility.
Pelvic Floor Therapists
Pelvic floor physical therapists play a crucial role in postpartum recovery by specializing in the treatment of pelvic floor dysfunctions. They address common symptoms such as incontinence, pelvic pain, and prolapse, which many women experience after childbirth. Through a combination of targeted exercises and specialized therapies, these experts help restore pelvic health and function. They not only focus on symptom relief but also emphasize patient education, empowering individuals with knowledge about pelvic floor health. By creating personalized treatment plans, pelvic floor physical therapists support recovery and enhance the quality of life, providing new mothers with the tools they need to heal and thrive postpartum.
NEWBORN SLEEP EXPERTS
Newborn sleep experts are specially trained to understand and support your baby’s sleep patterns, offering invaluable guidance on establishing healthy sleep routines. They possess deep expertise in addressing common sleep challenges and are dedicated to helping parents create a peaceful and restful environment that nurtures their newborn’s well-being.
Postpartum Doulas and Newborn Care Specialists
Doulas and newborn care specialists (or ‘night nurses’) offer overnight care for your newborn, allowing you to get the rest you need. They handle feedings, diaper changes, and comforting your baby through the night. Planning to breastfeed? They can bring baby to you for feedings! Many postpartum doulas can assist with in-home help including light housekeeping, laundry, and meal prep.
Nannies & Caregivers
Nannies offer flexible childcare options, giving you the time to focus on your recovery or other responsibilities knowing your infant is in safe hands.
