Obaatan Women is designed for families who may need more than one kind of care: a doula for birth preparation, a newborn care specialist for the first weeks, a lactation consultant for feeding support, a postpartum chef for recovery meals, a pelvic floor therapist for physical healing, or a nanny who understands the rhythm of an international household.
We encourage families to review each specialist’s credentials, experience, availability, and fit. Obaatan Women may provide curated listings and profile information, but families are responsible for conducting interviews, checking references, and making final hiring
decisions.
Welcome to Obaatan
What began as a journey to help women recover from the physical trauma of childbirth and pregnancy has evolved into a mission to help women prepare for the changes of pregnancy and childbirth during their postpartum period.
I’m tired of watching mother after mother suffer as they navigate pregnancy and the postpartum period alone. America, this is NOT the norm in most countries around the world and having the support and luxury you deserve during this special time should not be the exception. Nor should it be reserved for only the wealthy.
Our midwifery and postpartum concierge services offer you all of the help that you need during your pregnancy and postpartum.
Motherhood was not intended to be done alone. Let us provide you with the pampering and personal care that you deserve.
