Newborn Family Coaching
Support during the postpartum period helps family members adjust to their new roles, whether for the first time or the fourth. Studies have shown that the presence of a supportive person in the home reduces the incidence and/or severity of postpartum depression, and increases the success rate of breastfeeding.
Families used to be supported after birth by their own mothers, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, and friends. As family’s relocate and schedules do not allow for long visits, Postpartum Coaches have begun to fill that role. Postpartum coaches provided emotional, physical, and informational support for the new family, completions of basic daily tasks so that the family can bond, and information/education on newborn issues (sleep, nutrition, hygiene)
