Postnatal Doulas with Kicki Hansard
This week Emiliana talks to Kicki Hansard, author and founder of the Birth Bliss Academy and The Doula Directory.
Everyone who takes a Mindful Birth Group® course or subscribes to the Parent Hub gets access to a one hour postnatal doula session on Zoom once their baby is born. We view the recovery period as very much a part of the birth and support shouldn't stop as baby is born.
The topics we cover on this episode include:
- What is a postnatal doula, and what can they help a new parent with?
- How can you find a postnatal doula?
- What if you can’t afford a postnatal doula?
World Doula Week starts next week on 22nd March and so there will be lots of content on social media about doulas so do look out for that to learn more.
You can find more information on the topics we discussed today here:
