I have four children and have experienced a variety of birth scenarios: a planned hospital induction, a medical induction at a hospital, a spontaneous hospital birth, and a planned home birth. Through these experiences, I have encountered both positive and negative moments. One constant for me after each birth was dealing with postpartum depression. Despite having people around me, I often felt incredibly alone. I felt overwhelmed, even though my husband was helping out. I struggled with feelings of guilt for lying in bed and guilt that my older kids were eating microwaved food or spending days in their pajamas during those early weeks.
If I had known about postpartum doulas, I would have hired one. When my husband returned to work, I needed someone to fill the gap, tidy the house, and help with dishes and laundry to prevent them from piling up. I would have appreciated having someone prepare meals, run grocery errands, or support me daily.
That is the kind of support I want to offer you. Let me hold space for you! I can take care of the never-ending tasks that can feel overwhelming. Let me sit with you and encourage you when life and hormones get you down. Together, we can create a plan that suits your needs. I am not looking to provide an expensive package; I want to offer genuine help and support. My goal is to create a tailored plan at an affordable rate that feels worthwhile to you. If postpartum care is something that could benefit you, please reach out to me. We can schedule a phone consultation to discuss this further and talk more.

I wish you all the best,
Tayler Hallam
