Postpartum Care

After the Stork's nationally-trained postpartum doulas are experienced mothers, and they offer one thing: postpartum care. The postpartum period is their specialty and all of their energy is put towards supporting your new family once your baby has arrived. They love to empower you as a parent; to boost your knowledge and confidence by teaching you evidence-based methods of caring for, and comforting, your precious newborn.

Support Services

After the Stork offers support with breastfeeding, developing a flexible routine, and learning to read your baby's cues and needs. Most of all, they'll help you to just relax and enjoy your special new arrival! They will tidy your house, organize your nursery, and be available to answer your questions as they arise. Since nighttime can be a challenging time for new parents, many of their clients request support during the overnight hours.

Sleep

After the Stork is strongly committed to their clients, which is why Georgette has taken the intensive "Gentle Sleep Coach" training course. She saw the need to learn as much as she could about infant sleep and how to encourage great sleep habits, and she is available to all of her clients to guide and troubleshoot through sleep issues at no additional charge. Their goal is a great night of sleep for your entire family, and we want to get your baby sleeping through the night as soon as possible. They aim to work ourselves right out of the job!

    After the Stork is a wonderful resource for new and experienced parents after the birth of a baby. We did not use a doula service after our first child was born. I did so the second time around with some reservations. After the first night, I was completely at ease and so elated that we had chosen to use After the Stork. Especially since we had another child, getting much needed sleep was truly a gift. Moreover, Georgette and her entire staff are so knowledgeable and always available for questions and advice even though at first I did not think I would need it as much as I did!

    We were extremely happy with After the Stork — from Georgette and Carli to our doulas. Everyone was caring, professional and wonderful. Each doula brought something different of value to us and I was very happy with all of them. It was a great decision to work with ATS, from the ability to get some rest and have less “chores” on those nights to what they taught us with tips and tricks along the way.

    We were so impressed with After the Stork. Every doula we ever interacted with was wonderful, professional, caring. We don’t know how we would have made it without you all. We appreciated your ability to accommodate those added Friday nights. The doulas have so much experience and are so wonderful, truly angels. We will miss them terribly.

    Georgette and her girls are the BEST in the business. When we first met Georgette she told us she would have our son (second baby) sleeping through the night by 16 weeks. We were a little incredulous given that our first kid didn’t sleep thought the night until 13 months (did not use her services with first kid). And sure enough our son started sleeping through the night at 17 weeks. Her girls are super professional.

    Amazing Doula’s that make your life so much better in the difficult and tender moments of newbornhood. Their customer service is amazing too!
