Elite Family Care offers two types of newborn assistance, Postpartum Doulas and Newborn Nannies (Daytime and Overnight), to Sarasota and Bradenton families.
Welcoming a new baby into your home is a wonderful experience. It can also be overwhelming. With today’s shortened hospital stays, you may not be physically or mentally prepared to take care of your home and your family while still recovering from the birth or adjusting to the adoption of your new baby.
Postpartum Doulas
Elite Family Care’s postpartum doulas are trained to provide non-judgmental assistance in the first few weeks following birth. The doula’s role is to educate, encourage and support the family emotionally and physically. By “mothering” the mother and helping the family adjust, the new mom is allowed to focus solely on nurturing herself and the baby.
Doulas help educate and provide assistance, some of the duties may include, breastfeeding support, information on newborn characteristics, coping skills, soothing skills, swaddling, bathing, feeding, cord care, diapering, burping, rocking, holding baby so mom can eat/rest/shower, provide resources and referrals.
Doulas help with household transition, some of the duties may include, light tidying, laundry, snack/meal preparation, running errands, accompany mom to appointments, sibling care.
