SIX POSTPARTUM DOULA NURTURE SESSIONS - GIFT VOUCHER (Edinburgh)

6 x 3 hour in-home nurture sessions with Jenny from Yoga Links to be used over a period of time that suits Mum and baby. All sessions include freshly prepared food bundles using organic produce, herbal tea blends, and all services listed below.

This 6 session bundle is Jenny's signature offering, believing this is how we can really make a difference to the health and wellbeing of Mothers. We have an opportunity to increase our vitality as women during the postpartum time - with the right nutrition, body work, rest, herbal support and emotional and practical support. We do not need to merely survive, we can allow ourselves to really thrive. During these 6 sessions, Jenny offers all of the services listed in the comfort of her home. Jenny brings everything with her, and she's there to serve the motherbaby unit.

In-home postpartum care can include:

• nutritious meals to support postpartum health and replenishment, made with organic ingredients
• herbal blends used for teas, steams and bathing
• cacao - Jenny works with this both as nutritional support, and when holding ceremony
• castor-oil heat pads (alleviating pain/discomfort following on from birth)
• scar tissue remediation
• light house work - laundry, dishes, tidying, gardening, food shopping
• sibling care/pet care
• guidance on vaginal steaming (Jenny brings a purpose built chair)
• moxibustion (a Traditional Chinese Medicine practice of burning Moxa, or Chinese Mugwort, in a purpose build moxa box, promoting increased warmth, circulation and qi to the womb area)
• baby wearing support
• gentle oil massage
• postpartum yoga (usually after 6 weeks)
• yoga nidra (suitable for any time after giving birth)
• “closing of the bones” using a rebozo
• birth storytelling - allowing Mum to feel witnessed in her experience of birth, and all of the emotions surrounding the event

Jenny provides in-home care, so there is a maximum of 30 minutes driving time from EH49 included in the prices. Additional expenses may be added on top of this depending on where your loved one lives.
