New moms often are feeling exhausted and need the chance to know she is “off duty” and go take a nice long, deep nap.

The sleep deprivation that comes with a new baby is no joke, and new moms and dads need to take every opportunity that they can to rest.

While mom naps, I play with baby if s/he is awake or swaddle the baby up for a nap and get to work on the household chores. By this time, that load of laundry is ready to be switched to the dryer and I can fold whatever may be already done in the dryer. I also make sure all the diaper changing stations are stocked with diapers, and wipes.

If there is an older sibling, I spend time with him/her playing games and enlisting their “help” in caring for mom and baby. Toddlers are often very eager to help and are able to fetch diapers and burp cloths. A postpartum doula’s services are even more valuable to a family welcoming a second or third baby as mom can’t “nap when the baby naps” unless someone else is there to watch the older brother or sister as well.
