evening support for families from redwood city thru south sj
evening POSTPARTUM DOULA care
availability - 3 nights
I'm around to lend a hand 2-3 nights a week, except for weekends.
You can count on me for anywhere from 2 to 12 weeks. So, whenever you're ready for a little extra support, I've got your back. We'll take it one shift at a time and make sure you feel taken care of every step of the way.
shift options
I'm here for 2 to 6 hour shifts, starting as early as 5 in the evening or as late as 7:30 pm. If you need an extra set of hands for bedtime routines with an older sibling, an earlier start time could be perfect. And if you prefer more coverage during those late evening hours, a later start time might be just the ticket.
Whatever works best for you and your family, I'm flexible and ready to help out whenever you need me.
