Parenthood is a transition that is best done with gentle guidance, support, and encouragement.
Herbalist//Birth&Postpartum Doula - Lauren Alicia
Birth
One on one coaching and guidance through pregnancy and labor. We explore your intentions for birth and get clear on everything around the birthing experience. Everything from the science and anatomy of birth, pain management, and all the spiritual and emotional aspects to prepare for the surrender of birth.
Postpartum
I focus my postpartum practice around the healing of the mother. During a postpartum session we focus on what you are needing most that day. Everything from meal prep & massage to breastfeeding & baby support. I am a shoulder to cry on and a friend to celebrate the all the wins. I am your extra pair of hands so you can focus on healing and bonding with your new baby.
Healing Meal Prep
I prep healthly meals based on the season, centered round postpartum and herbal nutrition. I use my background in Ayurveda and herbalism to create delicious and healing meals to the whole family. I bring these meals to your door or cook them in your home if preferred. Ensuring you have more time to rest and always have a healthy meal you can easily and quickly warm and eat. All diet preferences welcome
