Postpartum care is always tailored to your family's needs, and may include:

  • Respite care so that you can shower, sleep and take a well-deserved break
  • Emotional support as you transition into parenthood
  • Comfort measures for the recovering postpartum body
  • Guidance on infant care and behaviour, including feeding, soothing and sleep
  • Sibling support (including on-call childcare while you are birthing another child)
  • Meal preparation
  • Light housework and laundry
  • Referrals to other community resources and care providers
  • When hired before your baby arrives, a prenatal meeting at about 37 weeks to meet you and your family, get to know your home and needs, and provide education on the postpartum period.
