Holistic Postpartum & Motherhood Care

Holding Mothers through pregnancy, postpartum & beyond

The way you experience your postpartum matters

The care you receive (or not) during this precious time has a huge influence upon your health, well-being and experience of being a Mother.

A well-supported postpartum does not happen by chance, it needs to be planned for. The needs of a postpartum Mother are very specific, but unfortunately, this wisdom has largely been lost by our western society.

Hiring a postpartum caregiver can support you to receive the kind of care you need during your postpartum, to cultivate healing, connection with your baby and confidence as you step onto your journey of Motherhood, for the first or fifth time.

Hi, I’m Samantha

I envision a world where women are supported and celebrated through their journey into Motherhood, in a way that respects their physiology and honours their incredibly important role within society. Offering postpartum care to Mothers is my way to support this vision.

"The best way we can ‘take care of’ the future generations, is by optimally supporting Mothers. The right order of things is that: Communities take care of Mothers, so that Mothers can take care of their babies, so that those babies can grow up to take care of their communities."

-Rachelle Garcia Seliga, INNATE Traditions

Testimonials:

“I am so pleased that I made the decision to hire Samantha, she was worth every single cent. She has a beautiful disposition and is a strong listener. She always left with me feeling heard, validated and very well cared for. Samantha also has such a treasure chest of knowledge regarding pregnancy, the birth world, postpartum and parenting, it's really impressive! The main thing that stood out to me about Samantha though is the absolute genuine care and desire to be there for other mothers. Her passion and drive for her work added an extra layer of something rather magical that I struggle to put into words! I would definitely hire her again”

"Sam supported me during my first 6 weeks postpartum after the birth of my first child. This support included home visits, cooking and freezing meals, physiological womb support (moxa treatment), and guidance surrounding yoni steaming.

Her presence in my home in that tender transitional time felt so nurturing. When I needed to rest with baby, I could barely hear her pottering around in the kitchen, yet her energy in my home brought a feeling of warmth and softness. The meals she prepared for me were so nourishing! Her knowledge and skillset in the realm of nourishing postpartum foods was evident in every mouthful. Her awareness of what a new mother needs shone through down to the smallest detail. I vividly remember my meals in a mug rather than a bowl and spoon for one handed ease, served on a tray with fresh cut wildflowers- divine!
