The early days and weeks after birth are full of change, learning, and deep emotion. At Doulas of Palm Beach, our daytime postpartum doulas offer calm, knowledgeable, and compassionate support to help you navigate this transition with confidence and care.

What Is a Postpartum Doula?
A postpartum doula is a trained professional who supports families in the home after the arrival of a new baby. Their role is to care for the entire family—not just the newborn—by providing practical help, emotional support, and expert guidance through the fourth trimester.
Your daytime postpartum doula can help with:
- Newborn care, feeding, and soothing techniques
- Parent education and confidence building
- Support with breastfeeding or bottle-feeding
- Light meal prep and household help
- Infant sleep education and safe sleep setup
- Sibling adjustment and emotional support
- Referrals to additional care providers when needed

“Working with Palm Beach Doulas was one of the best decisions we made after bringing our baby home. We were using our Carrot benefits for postpartum night support, and I expected the reimbursement process to be complicated. Instead, the team made everything incredibly easy. They answered all of our questions, provided the documentation we needed, and walked us through the process so we could maximize our Carrot benefits with very little stress.
One of the things we loved most about working with an agency instead of an individual doula was having options. We were able to speak with several wonderful postpartum doulas and choose the one who felt like the best fit for our family. Knowing there was also a trusted team behind the scenes gave us so much peace of mind. If our primary doula had ever been unavailable, we knew we would still have experienced support.
Our night doula was amazing. We finally got the sleep we desperately needed, learned so much about caring for our newborn, and felt genuinely supported during one of the biggest transitions of our lives. Every interaction with Palm Beach Doulas was professional, warm, and organized. I would absolutely recommend them to any family, especially those with Carrot benefits. They made the entire experience,from matching us with the perfect doula to helping us with reimbursement,simple, seamless, and worth every penny.“

“Palm Beach Doulas was AMAZING. From the day we brought our baby home they were ready and waiting. We planned ahead and while I was unsure at first, We wanted to use our Maven Benefits and they made it seem so easy! We trusted they knew what they were doing and they provided all the documentation we needed to make it happen. The day we find out we are pregnant again I will be calling them to make sure we book early. We loved our doula and were sad she had to move on once the baby was sleeping all night. Worth their weight in gold.”
— James, Palm Beach Florida
“I had been struggling since I was pregnant and I was hardly able to cope, then, my baby came early and with all the complications, meds and stress on my body, I have been drowning even more with my toddler too. I didn’t know who/what a Doula was before I was introduced to the term by a Doula who knew of my struggles. I can go honestly say that this service is gold. This past week, the days I got service and Chelle was here, I was able to breathe for a few minutes, bathe and ask questions and get answers regarding concerns I had. I am so grateful.”
“I am going through one of the most stressful moments in my life. It’s lonely, it’s confusing and overwhelming. I’ve been feel so lost and mentally and physically drained. My doula Chrissy has only visited a few days but already I feel like there’s some light at the end of the tunnel. Just being present to offer her hand, help with the baby or my daughter, lend an ear or offer some advice has made such a difference. Every little bit help especially when you don’t have any support from friend or family, every little bit helps”
“Before receiving these services, I was really having a hard time after giving birth and coming home feeling overwhelmed, a little depressed, alone, in pain and wondering how I was going to do it all by myself. Then I was BLESSED to receive these services and just in a weeks time, things started to get better for me and my kids and I have started to feel better although my journey has just begun. This program is TRULY A BLESSING that I prayed for! SO THANKFUL”
