When it comes to postpartum care, it matters who’s in the room.
The first few weeks after giving birth—what we call the fourth trimester—can be as overwhelming as they are beautiful. Sleep deprivation, healing, breastfeeding challenges, identity shifts, and a brand new baby: it’s a lot to hold.
This is why more and more parents are turning to postpartum doulas—professionals trained to offer emotional support, practical care, and guidance through one of life’s most vulnerable transitions.
At Sanu Postnatal Retreat, we believe your postpartum experience deserves to be elevated, healing, and deeply supportive. And that starts with the people we trust to care for you.
Why Choosing the Right Postpartum Doula Is Essential
Not all postpartum care is created equal. The person supporting you in the early days after birth has the power to shape not only your recovery, but your sense of confidence and peace in new parenthood.
A truly exceptional postnatal doula does more than check boxes. She listens deeply. She moves quietly. She anticipates your needs before you know them yourself.
She holds the mother, so the mother can hold her baby.

What do you love most about caring for newborns or supporting new moms?
New moms and newborns are in a vulnerable state during the first few weeks postpartum. There are joys and exciting new experiences along with challenges and extreme learning curves. Not only was a born, but a mother was born as well. As a birth and postpartum doula, my calling to serve families during this time stems from a passion to support mom, baby and the whole family, through this transition. I love watching a woman grow into a confident mother who advocates for herself and her child while feeling supported to heal and recover from childbirth.
