She/Her/Hers
Your Chicago Postpartum Birth Worker.
WTF is this whole parenthood thing-amIright? I am actively destroying the harmful ways we go about our postpartum journeys. I’ll help your family break the generational trauma of thinking new parents can do this alone and come out on the other side unscathed.
Now be honest-are you wondering what a postpartum birth worker (PPBW) is?
A PPBW is a non-medical support person for people who have just had a baby. They provide emotional, physical and educational support for you and the members of your family during the 4th trimester (first 3 months) and beyond!
Believe it or not, I also make this shit affordable for YOU! I offer a sliding scale hourly rate ($25-$45/hour) and give you 72 hours to evaluate your finances before you ultimately decide my salary before signing a contract with WTF.
