“It has been an immense joy working with Revital in my postpartum period. I have been able to deeply rest under her warm, grounded care. Her presence has been not only really beneficial for myself but for my whole family. She has taught me how to luxuriously take care of my physical, spiritual and mental bodies. This has allowed me to better show up fully for myself, my babe and my husband. Any postpartum mama would be blessed to be under her gentle, loving care.”

A postpartum doula is trained to provide physical, emotional, informational, and educational support to new mothers so they can heal and thrive! Postpartum doula typically supports a family during the first 6-weeks after birth but sometimes up to a year. Postpartum doulas vary in their level of training and expertise. Make sure you interview your doula regarding her specialties and scope of service.
