In-home postpartum care for new mothers
The Early Weeks is a nurturing, in-home postpartum support package for mothers during the early weeks after birth.
Through weekly visits focused on rest, recovery, and gentle care, this creates space for mothers to slow down, feel supported, and tend to their own needs while adjusting to life with a new baby, in her own home.
Available throughout Taranaki, NZ

*This package can be customized with any of my add-on options to suit your needs and support you through your unique journey.
Your body is doing so much while growing your baby.
This package is for you if you want gentle, nurturing, hands-on support as you recover after birth. Your healing matters.
Massage is a nurturing way to support your body during this transition. It can help you:
- Ease tension and soreness from pregnancy and labour
- Encourage circulation and warmth to support healing
- Create space for intentional rest, giving you a moment to slow down
- Calm your nervous system, helping you feel centred and present with your baby
Postpartum is a time of slowness and adjustment for both mum and baby, and having someone unfamiliar in your home can feel overwhelming. That’s why this package includes a prenatal connection visit, so we can meet, get to know each other, and plan how I will support you in those early weeks.
With six weekly in-home sessions, you will feel restored, nurtured, and supported, while your baby stays close and you have space to focus on your recovery and wellbeing.

Add On Options
These additional support options are available to be added onto The Early Weeks package or booked as standalone services. Each offering is designed to gently support you through pregnancy, postpartum, or beyond, with care tailored to your individual needs and season.
Your Birth, Your Way
Includes two in-person sessions and unlimited voice messaging between visits.
Preparing for birth can bring excitement, uncertainty, and lots of questions. You may feel anxious about the unknown, or carry memories from a previous birth that didn’t go as you hoped. And this time you want to approach things differently.
This birth planning support offers a calm, supportive space to slow everything down. We explore your hopes, values, and wishes for birth, while also talking through possible scenarios, fears, and what truly matters to you. Your chosen support people are welcomed into these conversations, helping them understand how best to support you and feel confident in their role. Together, we create a clear birth plan and postpartum plan, so you can move toward birth feeling confident, supported, and grounded in your choices.

Mama’s Moment
In-home postpartum support to help you rest, recover, and focus on bonding with your baby.
The early weeks after birth are a time of adjustment and learning, as you settle into life with your baby. This add-on offers in-home support for women who want extra care, reassurance, and practical help, so they can rest and focus on connecting with their baby.
These 3-hour sessions provide postpartum doula-style support tailored to your needs on the day. This may include breastfeeding support, space to talk through your birth experience, caring for your baby while you shower or rest, gentle support with older children, or light household tasks such as folding washing or making a hot drink. Sessions are intentionally unhurried, creating space for you to feel held, supported, and able to focus on your recovery and the bond with your baby.
$550.00 per 3-hour session
2 sessions: $1,000.00
3 sessions: $1,550.00
The 12-Week Check-In
A three-hour in-home postpartum check-in for mother and baby
Around 12 weeks after birth can be a quiet turning point. The early weeks have passed, support may have eased, and many mothers find themselves carrying more than they realise. This in-home check-in offers a dedicated pause. It’s a chance to be cared for, supported, and gently held as you continue to settle into motherhood.
This three-hour visit includes a
60-minute postpartum massage and personalised support tailored to what you need on the day. This may include breastfeeding support, emotional support after birth, or practical care around the home such as holding your baby so you can rest or shower or preparing a warm drink. There is no rush or expectations, just nurturing, hands-on care focused on your wellbeing while your baby stays close.
