Momma-to-be doesn't need more onesies, she needs some postpartum help!
The Baby Shower Package is what every mom really needs, some help. It includes 4 hours of postpartum help that can be broken up into 2 or 4 hour increments.
"Help" may look like answering lactation questions, bouncing the baby while mom showers, home resets, making some meals for the family, looking after older children in the home, help organizing babies closet, organizing baby diaper sizes, getting older children ready for school while mom nurses, diaper changes, bottle feeding, etc. I'm here to mother the mother.
May be redeemed up to 6 months after purchase.
If you just need a little help managing the transition, let me come help. Offered in 2 hour increments, pay as you go and let me know if you would like to add more hours.
No commitment to huge bills. Can be for lactation advice, baby wearing while you shower, light home pick up, help folding laundry, help cooking meals for the family, help transitioning to your spouse returning to work, etc. Let me come help you without a huge commitment.
Technically after the fourth trimester, if you have a teething babe and are struggling, put me in coach. Let me come in and help reset the house, get caught up on the chores, bounce the babe while you shower, etc. Whatever you need to help you recover.
One time 4 hour package for returning moms. If we do not have a histroy, lets meet first and make sure I am a good fit for your needs.
A short prenatal meeting to make sure we are the right fit.
A prenatal meeting to show me the house, meet any children, and talk about needs when baby comes.
Starting the week of birth, 16 hours of postpartum help broken into 2-6 hour increments until time is used up.
This may look like four weeks of twice weekly 2 hour help. Or it may be 2-3 hours every other day for the first week of your partner going back to work. It is meant to help meet mom where she is and address whatever her needs may be. Flexibility will also depend on my other clients and my personal child care.
Price includes travel fees inside Kootenai county.
About me
Hi there, my name is Makena!
I am a wife and a mother to all the things: a beautiful girl, a baby on the way, 2 dogs, and 4 chickens (I'm hoping to add more chickens and some bees to that list).
I serve on the board of A Parent's Paradise Charities and have served women with them in both labor and postpartum capacities. I have seen the difference doula care can make and I am passionate about making it accessible to anyone who wants it.
I believe birth and the postpartum season are meant to be supported, honored, and gently held — not rushed or managed. My work as a doula is rooted in calm presence, deep listening, and respect for each family’s unique rhythm.
“Their attention to detail and commitment to quality truly stood out. We’ve already recommended them to others.”
