What Makes Postpartum with Kayla Different

  • Postpartum-focused care. Most doulas in Bloomington-Normal focus on labor and birth. Kayla’s practice is built entirely around the postpartum period, the time after families bring baby home.
  • Overnight support is available. Kayla offers overnight shifts so parents can sleep while she handles or helps with feedings, diaper changes, and soothing.
  • Transparent hourly pricing. Rates are published openly: $35/hour for daytime and $45/hour for overnight care.
  • Support, not takeover. In Kayla’s words: “I don’t take over—I support you, empower you.” The goal is to help parents trust their own instincts and feel confident long after her support ends.
  • Works alongside your care team. Kayla complements, but does not replace, OBs, midwives, pediatricians, and lactation consultants.


Services

  • Feeding support: Practical, judgment-free help with breastfeeding, bottle feeding, or combination feeding.
  • Hands-on baby care: Soothing and holding baby so parents can rest, shower, or eat, while encouraging parent-baby bonding.
  • Light baby-related household help: Baby laundry, washing bottles and pump parts, and resetting shared family spaces.
  • Simple meal prep and nourishment: Simple meals and snacks, hydration reminders, and support for physical recovery.
  • Sibling support: Helping older children feel included so parents have space to focus on the new baby.
  • Overnight postpartum care: Handling or assisting with night feedings, bringing baby to the parent for nursing, diaper changes, soothing, light tidying, and calm reassurance so parents can protect their sleep during recovery.
