Mothers Love Postpartum Doula Service
Five Pillars of Postpartum Care
01
Nutrition
The Postpartum body cannot digest food in the same way, as it tries to reserve energy for
repairing the body and producing milk. It is therefore important that a mother is nurtured with
the correct foods that are easily digestible and provide the nutrition required not only to repair her body and replenish her own nutrient stores but also to manufacture the hormones needed at this time.
02
Sleep
Sleep and rest need to be the priority of a postpartum mother. When we sleep our body takes
inventory of what it needs to repair itself. It is also during sleep that the body will get to work on
what needs to be done. Optimising sleep will rejuvenate the body and support the hormonal flux helping to prevent peri-natal mood disorders.
03
Hormone Re-Balancing
In post partum hormones are in a natural state of flux. With correct nutrition and required
amount of sleep we can support hormones to do the necessary work to repair the body, produce
milk and help prevent peri-natal mood disorders.

04
Self-Care
Every mother needs rest and rejuvenation. Selfcare practices are an intricate part of all
postpartum traditions and cultures. From massage to belly binding, vaginal steaming,
mindfulness and creating warmth. All are sure to enhance the healing process and revitalise her body and mind.
Community (Your Village)
It takes a village… We were never meant to do this alone. It is not how the human brain is
designed. Creating your community of support offers love, connection, confidence, reassurance,
a listening ear, practical resources and much more. Partners, family, friends, a Doula, lactation
consultant, parent and baby groups etc. Let’s build your village together.
