Postnatal

As a British Pakistani, I carry my cultural practise of 'Chilla'. This means 40 days of rest postpartum. As a postnatal doula, I use the essence of 'Chilla' to ensure you are cared for, supported and nourished. The support I give includes helping with house work, cooking, caring for baby whilst parents rest, providing feeding support, emotional support and so much more.

Having a postnatal doula allows you to recuperate and rest mentally and physically.
This period of rest allows:
- You to be exempt from the usual household chores
- You to optimise oxytocin production to help the process of attachment and bonding between you and baby
- You to optimise milk prodiction & enables time to feed baby stress free
- You to health and gain strength post birth
- You to establish a routine without other pressures
- You navigate the changes having a newborn brings, which can help pther siblings & your partner to also have time to bond with the baby.
