Laura, Postpartum Doula and Bodyworker
Hi my name is Laura. I am a postpartum day doula living in Rockville MD. I specialize in newborn care and supporting the whole family during this transitional time. This includes your fur babies if they need any extra attention, care, or walks. I love animals and especially cats.
I am happy to provide all families with trauma-informed, empathetic, and respectful options for postpartum and infant care. I have a special place in my heart for queer, neurodivergent, and disabled families.
I love to incorporate my background in bodywork into my postpartum doula care by providing gua sha therapy for clients. It is very helpful for neck, shoulder, and back pain that can build up from feeding and holding baby. It’s also amazing for getting out clogged ducts!
I really value creating opportunities for families to feel rested, resourced, and knowledgable during the postpartum time. Please reach out if you are wanting to feel more confident and supported in caring for your newborn and adjusting to your new family structure.
