Wise Women Postpartum Care
What is the Wise Women's approach to Postpartum Care?
The Wise Woman approach to postpartum care is rooted in traditional wisdom and holistic practices that emphasize support for the physical and emotional well-being of new mothers. This approach recognizes the significance of the postpartum period, often referred to as the "fourth trimester," and seeks to honor and nurture the mother as she transitions into her new role.
Postpartum care facilitators are not licensed medical professionals and do not make decisions for the mother during labor or during the immediate postpartum.
If you're looking for someone who promotes a deep respect for the postpartum experience and encourages new mothers to trust their instincts while seeking the support they need during this transformative time, then the Wise Woman approach might be for you. It focuses holistic care, recognizing that physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being are all interconnected. If this resonates with you, I'm the person you're looking for.
