Curated child life and postpartum doula services

What we offer…

Child Life Services

Child Life Specialists have a specialized knowledge of child development and the impact of stress and trauma on a child’s wellbeing. The focus of these play-based sessions is to identify your child’s unique emotional needs and develop appropriate coping skills to help support optimal social, emotional, and cognitive development.

Family Support Services

Each family is a unique eco-system and deserves therapeutic support that is just as unique. These sessions can be just for parents looking to discuss how best to support their children, their family, or themselves. They can also be for the entire family, children included, with everyone working together to build new routines, habits, and skills that help you reach your family wellness goals together.

Postpartum Doula Services

Bringing home a new member of the family is a joyful, yet stressful time. Baby isn’t the only one in need of nurturance and support. These services are for those who could use extra support, guidance, and empowerment during those tender first few weeks and beyond. With a focus on mental health, these supportive services will help your entire family identify and utilize the resources needed to thrive.

Testimonials

  • "Georgia is the true definition of a gift. The postpartum phase is raw. Nothing can truly "prepare" you for how it will play out. Yet, having someone in my corner during that time that felt comfortable in my home, was a source of calm, and knowledgeable about all the things I was truly "learning" for the first time as a new Mom was one of the greatest gifts I could have received. Ditch the baby gift registry and invest in postpartum care from Georgia. You'll feel truly held as you step into this new phase as a family with confidence."

    BM

Georgia provides a safe and productive space for children to understand and learn to work through and with their emotions. We are beyond grateful to have Georgia in our lives.”
