What does an Overnight Doula do?
A nighttime postpartum doula provides invaluable support to new parents during the overnight hours of the postpartum period, particularly the first 40 days. The role of a nighttime postpartum doula is to provide compassionate and practical support to new parents during the overnight hours, helping them navigate the challenges of early parenthood and promoting a smooth transition into family life.
Overnight supports can include:
Newborn Care Assistance
Nighttime postpartum doulas assist with newborn care tasks such as feeding (breastfeeding or bottle-feeding), diaper changes, soothing techniques, and ensuring the baby's safety and comfort throughout the night.
Emotional Support
Navigating the challenges of early parenthood can be overwhelming, especially during the nighttime hours. Overnight doulas offer emotional support, reassurance, and a listening ear to parents as they adjust to the demands of caring for a newborn.
Feeding Support
For parents who are breastfeeding, nighttime doulas provide guidance and assistance with latch, positioning, and troubleshooting common breastfeeding challenges during nighttime feedings. They also assist with bottle-feedings if needed.
Sleep Support
Nighttime doulas help establish and maintain a conducive sleep environment for both the baby and parents. They may assist with sleep routines, swaddling techniques, and implementing safe sleep practices to promote restful sleep for everyone.
Education and Resources
Overnight doulas offer evidence-based information and resources on newborn care, postpartum recovery, breastfeeding, and other relevant topics. They may provide guidance on baby care techniques and recommend resources or additional support as needed.
