New Mother Support Session

Maybe you are feeling physically sore or exhausted after birth.

Maybe you are looking for ways to support your own emotional & physical healing as you grow as a mother. 

Maybe your baby is a couple weeks or months old and you are feeling stuck or worried about your mental health and well-being.

Maybe you are experiencing a miscarriage or abortion.

This support is for mothers in the fourth trimester that are feeling stressed & overwhelmed and want to feel nourished, supported, and joyful so they can show up as the mother they want to be.

If you are looking for comprehensive holistic care, look into my fourth trimester support packages.

Mother-centered care for whole family wellness

Each session includes preparation of nourishing food, warming bodywork, and practical care to support a mother’s physical, emotional, & nutritional recovery after birth.

What mothers enjoy about my support

“One of the experiences that sticks out in my mind was when Skylar prepared a sitz bath for me to help heal my body. I remember walking into my bathroom, the lights were off, there was a candle flickering and I could smell a beautiful mix of herbs. I had just had a baby a week ago and I sat there feeling calm, joyous and like I was at the spa hot springs up in South Dakota that my husband and I love to go to every summer. I remember coming out of that experience feeling so refreshed and happy. Having a baby is amazing and at the same time one the hardest thing to go through. While I do have that support system I am still so glad that I found Skylar.”
— Mary, mother of two
 

A time to receive

The New Mother Support Session is a way to nurture mothers who are pouring an incredible amount of love & energy into care-taking their babies.

In order to thrive, a newborn mother needs nourishing foods, gentle bodywork, connection, & practical support. Without this valuable in-home care, women in the United States are feeling exhausted, depleted, & overwhelmed.

 
 

    • Mothers in the first 3 months after birth or pregnancy release (after miscarriage, still birth, abortion)

    • Mothers who value nutritious and thoughtfully made meals to support their healing

    • Mothers who want extra support processing their birth & postpartum experience all in the comfort of their home

    • Mothers that feel lonely , overwhelmed, or disconnected and are looking for non-clinical support and care

    • One phone call consultation before the visit to discuss needs & get to know the mother

    • One 4 hour in-person visit with Skylar, Certified INNATE Postpartum Care Provider & Certified Postpartum Professional

    • Thoughtful & nutritional foods prepared in home and served warm - one meal, one snack, and one soothing beverage ((food is one of the most nurturing ways to support a mother!))

    • One traditional bodywork therapy (options: sitz bath, womb steaming, belly binding, c-section scar tissue massage or self-massage guidance)

    • Feminine care that is rooted in holding space for the mother, compassionate listening, intuition, and nurturance

    • A little bit of practical support for mother, whether that is helping with laundry, care-taking her newborn so she can shower & have her own time, learning how to baby wear, or washing pump parts

    • Fee includes cost of food and all herbs

  • My menu is made up of client favorites! Main meals, snacks, & beverages - all deeply nourishing foods specific for the fourth trimester that feed the mind, body, & soul.
