Newborn Care

Easing into the 4th Trimester with multiple touchpoints for you AND your baby.

Our Postpartum & Newborn Visit Schedule:

  • 24-48 hours postpartum: midwife visit for parent and baby (one dedicated hour supporting your transition)

  • 4-6th day postpartum: midwife visit for parent and baby; bodyfeeding parents will receive expert guidance

  • 2nd week postpartum: midwife visit for parent and baby

  • 6th week postpartum: midwife visit for just the parent (though baby is welcome along!)
    additional visits as needed

An empathetic ear and tender touch

We follow the parent-newborn dyad closely to make sure rest, healing, nutrition and sleep are promoted in the first six weeks postpartum. Emotional support is emphasized at every visit and your baby is closely tended to before transferring care to a pediatrician at 2 weeks.

  • Hearing screening, 24h metabolic screening, Congenital Heart Defect screening
