After
mother and baby arrive home, the questions about newborn care
abound. Lin Cook has helped hundreds of families in this transitional
time period. The typical types of services offered include:
- newborn care questions
~ eating, sleeping, bath, care of cord/circumcision, skin, etc.
- meal preparation
- laundry
- shopping/errands
- care of other children
- light daily cleaning
- dishwasher, beds, straightening
The evidence
of postpartum depression is substantially lower with support after
birth. In-home postpartum care achieves this by answering questions
from family members, bringing normality to the home, and ultimately
providing more opportunities for rest. In addition, if other children
are in the home, postpartum care attempts to maintain their normal
routine allowing for a smoother transition for the entire family.
