MotheRing is designed to help families with new babies adjust following birth. I also provide follow-up support as needed throughout the first two years of babyhood.
I firmly believe in the natural capabilities of mothers to care for their children. I offer practical, family-centered help and encourage new parents to trust their instincts and common sense as they get to know their unique new baby, without the unnecessary interventions driven by a fear-based society.
MotheRing helps new mothers:
- heal and recover (both physically and emotionally) from childbirth
- establish breastfeeding
- navigate the first weeks and months of their newborn's life
- create a relaxed home environment
- sift through the mountain of conflicting information and advice
- adapt their lifestyle and household to the new family structure
- discover and utilize existing resources
- form a circle of support that may include spouse/partner, extended family, friends, and neighbors
MotheRing provides an individualized approach designed to support the specific needs of each family, including spouses/significant others, siblings, and extended family members.
